    Son I downloaded all of their CCIE Sec videos from a file sharing site a while back. it was a couple gigs. If you need em lemme know, I'll throw em up on my FTP.

    I'm like halfway through the CCIE book already. I pretty much gotta go over the VPN stuff and I'll be good.

    And after I changed my resume on these sites to say I have my CCIE I've been getting hit up more than ever. They trying to play me though, nobody saying they can do 100/hr, lying ass ? smh. One dude said the best he can do is 110k. I can't cop an Audi R8 with that ? !

    I'd more than likely get a Bentley lol. Stop fronting, you ? around and get your IE and ? wanna pay you 120/hr you ain't getting an S5, you going straight to Lambo dealership to ? on ? , and I'd be right behind you. I gotta friend whos an IT recruiter, i emailed her and asked her realistically how much I can get. I thought $100 would be pushing it but these ? is replying back like it's no problem. I don't know what ima do to be honest. I might stay there until the contract up and try to get the R&S cert too. It's about 80% the same anyway.

    120/hr, that's 250k a year. Ima ? around and end up being a 1%er before my 30th birthday krs.gif

    its going good. got a ? up network that has an asa in the middle of everything...and its making ? go crazy. so they brought me in to rebuild it. Gonna be a long process because the firewall has 1123 acl's and 500 object groups. CCIE that im working with said its more complicated than the actual exam.

    exactly..lol. this old guy designed the network years ago and we're trying to figure out his logic. So far, from what I know its pretty large, from Atl to Dallas as a DR site. Still looking at everything in between too. Its a trust bank so theres alot of ? to do. smh

    Do you give an interview and everything with your fake CCIE resume to get the rates? or do they just send you rates? I think Imma start doing that. Just put my resume out there and do interviews or whatever it takes to see how much a CCIE Voice can command and how much my current resume with my CCNP Voice is worth.

    lol I know right. All this ? might just be a pipe dream, but it's giving me mad motivation to study though.

    I was reading up on the lab, and came across this link on cisco's site
    Patrick is 100% right. (Hello Patrick!)

    No ASDM in the CCIE security lab.

    The GUIs you will have, are for the IPS appliance, and the ACS.

    Best wishes,

    Keith

    How the ? am I supposed to remember all of the commands to configure all the ASA ? from the CLI (on top of the router and switch configs)? No wonder so many people fail, Cisco on some ? b. All this time I've been glossing over the CLI stuff for the ASA's because I thought you'd be able to use the ASDM. I might have to push my lab back past August now smh.

    ^^^^^

    i thought the same thing at first but i noticed that most of the books i read etc used cli. the asdm just makes ? easier but with the cli you have more control. I've been using the cli mostly since I've been looking at the ccie, just in case. I watched some of the videos too from ipx and the instructor uses cli 98% of the time. Just practice man. No wonder they said you would have to give up your social life for a few months

    i go into everything using the CLI, i damn near forgot the asdm existed. i did forget how to get into it when my coworker asked..lol

    When I was going through the vpn and firewall exams, most of the stuff was via asdm. I feel like cisco just styled on me.

    ? I've probably got like 3-4 hours of sleep on avg this week smh.

    i'm about to be on hiatus from studying for a while. moving next week. once i get settled, i'm gonna look into the written again. i had it scheduled for friday but got a new job, relocating etc. i'm gonna knock that one out by the end of May. Looking at the CCIE lab by the end of the summer

    Congrats man. What city are you moving to?

    i appreciate that. Moving to Atl to snatch up some of the women there lol

    Nice. Well, I'm still studying for my CCENT. I been finished the CBT nuggets, but I'm now downloading the trainsignal vids. Like I said, it's either the ATL or Los Angeles for me. Are they going to pay for you to move down there?

    yeah theyre giving me a little relocation money. Keep studying man, it pays off.

    But, if you want to get into acting, you should try to get to Cali asap. Why go to Atl?

    Quick question King. I know you put ATL on your resume, how did you get them to give you relocation money then?

    I put atl on the resume just to attract recruiters from here..then the first thing i told them was i live in NC. I just asked if it was provided and they worked something out to give me a stack for relo. wasnt much but it helped
