Welcome back!

First off, I spent the better part of today working on IPexperts CCIE Security Multiprotocol Lab B.  It’s not that its hard so far, more like the interuptions make it hard to study.  I really had to catch myself.  I found myself trying to figure out how to get a PDF on my kindle for an upcoming trip and then it dawned on me…you’re gonna have your laptop and guess what- its pretty good at reading PDFs.  DUH.  What a waste of time.  Anyhow, I got another 50 sessions that I need to schedule.  And decided that since I only have 48 days till my second attempt at the lab that anything that can be put off- will be put off.  I need to stay focused.

There are a few things that I am noticing and am quite annoyed with as I use the IPexpert labs.

First and foremost, I’m sick of the telnet sessions timing out.  It doesnt happen when I use the IE labs but it does with Proctor Labs so I’m guessing its not something on my end.  If I have 8 hours it should leave me alone for 8 hours.

Second, the save config and load config option is Totally false advertising that erks me.  If I cant do it…get rid of the buttons.  The fact is that it would be a totally awesome option and every time I see the button I want to use it.  Sometimes I want to pick up where I left off and wasting my time to copy configs is lame…but a necessity.

Third, I just got access to the Security PDFs.  AWESOME.  (okay so not something that annoys me but still I wanted to mention it)

And I think thats it.  Tomorrow I only have early labs and then I MUST spend some time with my family.  Back to the hard core study next week.
