CCIE Security Home Lab with dynamips
Aug 13th
Introduction
The goal
I wanted to have a lab environment where I can prepare myself for the CCIE Security lab exam. Dont get me wrong, rack rentals are probably the best and cost efficient way to play with real gear (besides owning the complete equipment). On the other hand, it can be quite frustrating trying to align your schedule with free rental time slots, so if you have some spare time (you should study right now, shouldnt you? ;-)) and dont fear a shell prompt, lets get started.
The final layout is very close to the topology that Internetworkexpert uses in their excellent workbooks.
Description
With the help of dynamips, dynagen and pemu, Cisco routers – including switch modules – and pix devices can be emulated on a single PC. Recently I wrote a howto of how to run the Cisco IPS software in VMware, so except for ASA firewalls, VPN concentrators and some security features on the catalyst switches, everything the current CCIE lab blueprint lists can be emulated on a PC.
In my environment, I have one external Cat3750, one ASA 5505 and a VPN 3005 concentrator. If you dont have these devices, you still can master a lot of the blueprint topics and rent a rack to make yourself familiar with the VPN concentrator and some of the features a PIX does not offfer (WebVPN).

CCIE Security: Certificate-based ACLs
Jul 23rd
A big shout out to all the students in the Raleigh Security CCIE bootcamp last week. I had a blast! Thank you for all your hard work, as well as the after hours discussions about the unknown, and why people feel they know it.
I promised a few blog posts related to security over the next few weeks, and this one is regarding Certificate-based ACLs.
This blog may also serve as a review on how to configure the CA clients so that their certificates contain various fields and values, such as subject-name.
Let’s use this diagram for the backdrop of our discussion:

CCIE Security Learning the Principles of Network Security
Jul 23rd
CCIE Security is one of the five tracks that candidates can choose from. Getting a CCIE certification in Security indicates a candidate s expert level knowledge of IP and IP Routing, as well as network security protocols and components with subjects that include IOS Security, IDS, ASA and many others. There are no prerequisites for this type of CCIE certification, though candidates are encouraged to undergo training to enhance their knowledge and skills as far as network security is concerned.
There are barely two steps that candidates need to take before getting CCIE Security certified. The first step is to pass the written exam. It is a two-hour test with 100 multiple choice questions that needs to be answered within specific time constraints. No open books or other reference materials allowed when taking the exam. It usually costs around US $300, which also depends on exchange rates and local taxes. Results of the CCIE exam are available immediately after the exam. Passing it means that the candidate is ready to move on to the next step and that is to take the lab exam within a period of 18 months only. Failure to do so may mean expiration of the written exam score. More >

Because of this, many multinational companies are on the lookout for competent and certified IT professionals and network engineers to look after their IT network. A person having a CCIE certification would be highly in demand for such corporations. This article will give an overview on how to become a CCIE expert.
Before anything else, a candidate must first choose what CCIE track or tracks to take. There are five basic tracks available, namely;
(1) Routing and switching track,
(2) security track,

CCIE Security Adds Core Knowledge Questions
May 17th
For a short while now those working on routing and switching have been talking about the new Core Knowledge questions that can now make or break your lab. On May 15th Cisco announced the same change to the CCIE Security Lab exam.
So what does this mean for current CCIE Security Candidates? Well, for one, it means that you will be asked a series of four open-ended questions that require a short, typewritten response. Cisco says these will typically be several words. They are not looking for you to write a book, rather prove that you know the fundamentals. Like the Routing and Switching, as a CCIE Security Candidate you will get 30 minutes to complete this section prior to starting the hands-on portion and once you leave this section there is no looking back. This makes it even more important for you to know the fundamentals.
So how can you remain sharp when it comes to the fundamentals? I would recommend augmenting your hands on time with a review of the CCIE Security Written Exam Study guide from CCBootcamp, a read through Network Security Technologies and Solutions, and listening to the CCIE Security Audio Bootcamp from IPexpert.
