Cisco CCIE Specializations Overview
By Shannon Margolis
The CCIE (Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert) is one of the most
respected certifications in the IT industry. The CCIE is the highest level
professional certification provided by Cisco that recognizes great
expertise in performing a wide variety of operations with networks,
utilizing Cisco technologies and products. IT professionals who possess
the Cisco CCIE certification have remarkable career opportunities in the
industry, being eligible for occupying much desired job positions inside
major IT companies worldwide.
Although Cisco Certified Internetwork Experts are in high demand in
today’s competitive IT climate, it is important to note that the
certification track is not easy to traverse and the CCIE certification can
be difficult to obtain. In order to increase your chances of obtaining the
CCIE title, it is advisable to complete an efficient form of training
provided in an authorized learning center and accumulate a good level of
experience in the field. During training, you should pay equal attention
to both the theoretical and practical aspects required by the CCIE, as the
final CCIE exams include a written section and also a set of practical
laboratories.
At present there are 5 CCIE tracks, each allowing network professionals to
become specialized in a specific area of Cisco networking. The CCIE tracks
are: CCIE Routing & Switching (one of the most popular Cisco expert
certification tracks, covering topics such as LAN, WAN, Ethernet, TCP/IP,
etc), CCIE Security (focuses on the latest network security solutions and
covers topics such as Cisco PIX firewall, Wireless LAN, IOS security and
so on), CCIE Service Provider (focused on networking in the service
providing industry, covers topics such as Optical networks, DSL, Voice
over IP, WAN switching, Content Networking, Broadband Cable and so on),
CCIE Storage Networking (a recently introduced Cisco certification track,
focuses on storage networking topics such as Fiber Channel, ISCSI, FCIP
and FICON) and the very popular CCIE Voice track (focuses on voice
solutions for variable size enterprises, covering an extensive series of
topics such as QoS, MGCP, Call Manager, Cisco Unity, Unity Express and IP
Contact Center Express).
The Cisco CCIE Voice track has become very popular and attracts hundreds
of candidates in search of a successful career in the IT industry. On the
actual premises, CCIEs specialized in Voice technologies and solutions are
in high demand and therefore they can easily find great employment
opportunities in a variety of IT companies.
Although there are no formal prerequisites for the CCIE Voice
certification, candidates to certification must have in-depth
understanding on the topics comprised by the written section of the final
exam and at least three years of professional experience. In order to take
the practical section of the CCIE Voice exam, network professionals must
pass the CCIE Voice Written Exam, which covers the entire set of
technologies and applications that include a Cisco Enterprise VOIP
solution. The best way to accumulate all the theoretical knowledge
required at the CCIE Voice Written Exam is to complete an official
training program in a reputed educational center.
If you want to acquire all the necessary conceptual knowledge in a cost
and time-effective manner, the best option is to book a CCIE Voice boot
camp in an authorized learning center. Being held over a period of three
days, official CCIE Voice boot camps are the best type of CCIE accelerated
training you can find. The exquisite CCIE Written training offered in
official CCIE Voice boot camps is ideal for candidates preparing for the
CCIE Voice Written Exam. However, CCIE Voice boot camps are also
recommended to individuals who have already passed the CCIE Voice Written
Exam but do not have all the conceptual knowledge needed for being
accepted in an official CCIE Voice Lab training.
Official CCIE Voice boot camps offer the highest quality CCIE Written
training you can find, covering all the exam-required subjects in an
exhaustive, yet very comprehensive and approachable manner (Campus design,
QoS, Architecture and Protocols, SMDI, Security, Capacity Planning – Voice
gateway / Network, Dial Plan, High Availability Considerations, Video,
Echo Theory, Fault Diagnosis and many more). Although CCIE Voice boot
camps are a form of CCIE accelerated training, they are still focused on
discussing all the relevant theoretical aspects in great detail.
Official CCIE Voice boot camps not only provide efficient instructor-led
training, but also benefit students with competitive learning conditions
(high-speed wireless Internet access, fully-equipped classrooms, etc) and
a series of other advantages such as multiple financing options, free
transportation from the training center to the hotel, etc. Corroborating
great convenience and affordability with high-quality training and
competitive learning conditions, official CCIE Voice boot camps are the
ideal form of CCIE Written training for candidates to the CCIE Voice
title.
