I finalized my CCNP studies a few weeks ago by finishing the ROUTE exam. It was a lot of long nights studying in the lab, going through scenarios to get the command structure in my head and observe the behavior of routing protocols, but it was well worth it! I’m currently set to take my ARCH exam for the CCDP at the end of March. This has been a great experience so far learning how networks function and how to build out a resilient, efficient network from the bottom up. If you haven’t started, you should definitely start now!
