I am a CCIE R&S & read your newsletter for quite some time now.

I think it is a very nice way of knowing sometimes not so difficult but hidden utilities in the Cisco IOS.

Keep it up !!

I have been using ConfigureTerminal.com and reading the newsletter on a regular basis during the last 6 months.

All I have to say is that it is an incredibly useful site for networking professionals.

It has helped me a lot with my CCNP studies and daily tasks at work.

My most sincere "Well done" to David Bombal and his team.

Hi David,

Success!!! I passed - 83% :-) Thanks for the course this week, it's been excellent. I've been buzzing every night when I got home, my Wife thinks I'm turning into an anorak!!! Your presentation of the course was, in my opinion, superb - I
found the way it was snappy & fast paced kept me switched on to the subject all the time, even though I was completely flaked out at the end of each evening!

Thanks again - if I ever get the opportunity to recommend your training services within BT then I will do so without hesitation.

Regards,
Neil.

David,

Thanks! It went very well,

I passed the test. Yehaw!

I attribute my success to the time spent using the CCNA Knowledge Verifier testing application.

It covered important concepts and operational tasks that were covered on the CCNA test.

The Command Line Memorizer section provided additional insight into many of the troubleshooting exercises.

Thanks again for your help.
