Well, the Cisco Live Scheduler is now open and there is one thing that I forgot to mention. If you are a CCIE, Cisco Live sessions can help you with your recertification by earning you CE credits via the Continuing Education Program. Here are some links to my Original post on the announcement and Review post when I recertified last time using CE credits.
One of the awesome benefits of Cisco Live is the free Cisco Pearson Vue testing (testing center is sponsored once again by Global Knowledge) that takes place during the event. Normally in past years, the testing center has been located at the convention location, yet in recent years the testing center has been located not within the convention center.
Quick update – scheduler goes live on 23-Apri-2019. I posted this a day early – guess I just wanted to get the jump on everyone!
Today is the day that most of the Cisco Live attendees are waiting for – the day that the schedule goes live! You can access it here (you may be prompted for CLUS login).
The latest Juniper Day One: Juniper Ambassador’s Cookbook for 2019 has recently been published. What is nice about these cookbooks from Juniper is the range of information that is contained to them. There are time-saving configuration tips using apply-groups that work across all platforms, there are EVPN VLAN configurations for MX series, ZTP for EX, and much much more.
Wow – can you believe that in a few months we will be spending our days at Cisco Live learning from some of the best. We will be hanging with old friends while making new ones. We will be having some of the best lunches that have even been served at a conference! Most of all though – we’ll be partying with the Best of You all while we Take On Me.
It is time to hit that RESET button again for me as I have been away too long. I missed writing blog posts, sharing information, and it will be nice to make the time to write them again.
So where have I been – well that is simple, head-down in study mode. I am working obtaining my Juniper JNCIE-SEC certification since last year and have been studying like crazy – yet not enough to pass the lab. At this point I have taken the JNCIE-SEC lab three times, first two times I was ill-prepared and this past time I felt like I almost had it. So, back to study mode and will be focusing on that for some time yet. Will let you know more on that when I pass the darn thing – not giving up!
As many
Ahh, the time is almost upon us for CLUS and I know I have been a been quiet lately, more on that in another post though. This Cisco Live will be my 15th consecutive Cisco Live that I have attended – my first being Las Vegas in 2005.
This year we are heading back to San Diego, CA Conference Center near the historic heart of San Diego – the Gaslamp Quarter. The last time the conference was in San Diego was 2015, not that long ago but feels like an eternity! The Gaslamp Quarter has some amazing food and bar joints, it will make for some
In 2018-October Juniper announced that the new JNCIE-SEC JPR-933 beta exam will be available in December and January. Ok, this might not be super recent news, it was announced last October – I am just a bit behind on posting stuff due to studying for my JNCIE-SEC.
On Tuesday of next week (15-Jan-2019) I will be part of an amazing group of people who are lucky enough to meet with Cisco’s Service Provider team.
This event will be streamed over on the Tech Field Day website. Some of the topics that Cisco will be presenting on include:
