I decided to use the Internetwork Expert End-to-End CCIE Security Program for my study material; however I could not swing the cost of this training.  I was able to purchase INE's Security Value Package 1 electronic edition. This package includes:

CCIE Security Advanced Technologies Class-on-Demand
CCIE Security Lab Workbook Volume I (Electronic)
CCIE Security Lab Workbook Volume II (Electronic)

My initial study strategy includes finishing the Class-on-Demand and Volume I by the end of the year.  I am going to attempt 2 hours a day of Workbook study and 1 hour of reading.  Starting January 1, I will re-evaluate my study plan and build a schedule for Volume II and rack time. I hope to schedule my lab in July.

Just passed the CCIE Security Written exam.  Now I start the long path towards studying for the lab exam.  I have decided to use the Internetwork Expert End-to-End CCIE Security Program. I was initially looking at IPExpert for my training material, but had a friend recommend INE.

Since this journal was originally started to help motivate me in my efforts towards the CCIE Security certification I am going to attempt to post more often.

Just scheduled the CCIE Security Written Exam for September 17. I am hoping this renews my expired CCNP and CCDP certifications.
