VCP-NV

Proud to announce that after completing the VMware NSX ICM course and some dedicated study time that I was able to pass the VCP-NV exam and achieved my first VMware VCP certification! I am looking forward to the challenge of the VCIX-NV exam and hope to have it passed by Jan 1st 2016.

Blog Update

It has been awhile since my last blog post so I wanted to give an update. As of early August I have joined the EDT team at Dell working as a Network Planning Engineer. I have to say that I really like my new position at Dell and the chance to work with gear such as Force10, Sonicwall, Aruba, and much more. I feel Dell has positioned themselves as a game changer with all of the recent companies acquired and investments made in the Enterprise Networking Market.

iPad Apps and Android Apps

I am a big fan of mobile gadgets as I create this blog entry using my Android based MyTouch 4g which I have to say is a decent phone so far. I also use my iPad more than I use a laptop as I have found apps that let me do just about everything I use my laptop for. Cisco has a decent amount of apps out for the iPhone and iPad. I use the WebEx app on my iPad a lot to host or attend meetings for work. With the Cisco Cius being an Android based tablet you would think that Cisco would have a decent amount of apps out on the Android market by now. I'm torn between the two platforms as I find potential in both and working in the IT industry the both serve as some great tools. What are your thoughts on the two and what apps would you suggest either to help you study for your Cisco certification or make you job easier as a tool in the field???
