Very good blog here Marcus.  I started out as a desktop support person in a network full of collision domains.... yes, it was full of hubs!  As a desktop support person, I constantly ran into networking issues and to the end user, it appeared that the destop was slow.  Getting my Network+ and CCNA really helped me in understanding the network.  There was one time where I asked the network dept to replace a hub with a switch because I knew that it would break up the collision domains.  The installation of the switch fixed the problem and although I was not the network person at the time, having the knowledge and understanding helped me be a better desktop technician.

 

Because I had my CCNA and used it where ever possible in my desktop job, I was promoted to a Jr. network engineer.  I then became the network technician that got to install and configure the switches and routers.  During this time, we started going away from T1 connections and using 1 gig fiber WAN connections.  Because of this and being introduced to firewalls, load balancing and other more advanced concepts, I decided to go for my CCNP.  It has just helped me to do my job better.

 

Now that the CCNA concentrations are out, I find my self going back to those, just so I can do my job better.  Now that I am the Sr. engineer, I am also finding my self in design situations where a CCDA would be helpfull.

 

My goal is to do all ccna concentrations and CCDA and possibly to CCSP & CCNP Wireless.  I may even do CCVP if Voice ever hits our environment.
