The
most important part of my preparation was attending the CyscoExpert
training program in Chicago. Although my grasp of overall lab topics was
pretty good prior to attending, the eight days that I spent with
CyscoExpert proved to be the most effective preparation of all. I worked
through their various Labs and Simulation Labs and was hammered on
technical issues I thought I knew. In my opinion, the CyscoExpert labs
were easily more difficult than the actual CCIE lab and provided a
wonderfully challenging, yet rewarding means of identifying and
resolving complex issues. By the time I arrived in RTP, I was ready for
anything.
