Devaluation of Technical Certifications In Progress

I received this email as a member of a Juniper group within Google, and I was a bit blown away by the fact that someone, first of all, would be willing to pay someone else to get them certified. But then I realized after some thought, while consulting with some of the knuckleheads that I have had to work with that have > 5 certifications all from different vendors, and couldn't possibly due the work they were hired for. Honestly. I've seen it and been dumbfounded by the amount of coin they were pulling in and then they would have me do the work. Awesome.

Is this the end of how certifications are valued? I of course have NEVER thought highly of certifications. My biggest reason is because so many test questions are so loaded and NEVER straight forward and are so subjective that you have to guess what {Enter Vendor Name Here} wants instead of interesting factual information. <!@%^%$#> I hate tests but not enough to be a <!@%^%$#> <!@%^%$#> to pay someone to take a test for me.

So, without further delay:

A good place to go for certifications is Cisco, they have lots of seminars and online tutorials. Great place to get information about anything IT. Link:

Well that is if you want to drink the Cisco Kool-Aid. I won't [publicly] make fun of people wanting to eat the Crisco dog food. If you want to go with Crisco, make sure it's not just because everyone else does. There are better vendor's and solutions other than Crisco's. Juniper has made an agressive move to get into Enterprise space. I wish I could quote this guy, but I actually heard a Crisco employee say that if it weren't for name recognition and acqusition's, Crisco would not hold the #1 spot based on innovation. Juniper is handing Crisco's preoverbial arse to them on innovation. I also heard from a Juniper SE say that it comes down to who sucks less, and Juniper [I agree] sucks less.

I'm bias -against- Cisco personally, I think they are overrated and overvalued.

But neither of our argument's on this comment are not so much regarding training as it is the fact that there -are- people who will pay fekker's on the Internet to get their cert's. Based on what I've seen in the field, these people are either good test takers or they paid someone else to do it!

Thanks for the comment Erin.

Juniper / NetScreen Dual Untrust

Something I did recently using a SSG 20 with commercial T1 and Comcast and both default virtual routers. (You don't have to use two virtual routers, but here's why I did this at first). Initially, my client reported that Comcast was assigning DHCP to the firewall's interface. When DHCP is used, the default route created from DHCP cannot be modifed and will show up as a directly connected route, so it will have a higher metric (unless you modify your preference / metric settings, but I have not tried that) So, if Comcast is supposed to be the backup route, placing it in the untrust-vr and controlling traffic in the trust-vr worked great. This works fine with a static IP as well. Here we go: Here are the default zones in the default trust-vr. set zone "Trust" vrouter "trust-vr" set zone "Untrust" vrouter "trust-vr" I created a new custom zone and placed it in the untrust-vr set zone id 101 "Comcast" set zone "Comcast...

Um, EHLO?!

So, I have to say what a drag it is to have 20+ .pst files from an Exchange 2000 server and having no way to import said .pst files at the server level into Exchange 2007. Oh yes, I'm well aware of the SP1 option for the <!@%^%$#> Import-Mailbox Powershell command syntax, but, I'm also aware that SP1 is not yet out of beta. And even if it was today, it wouldn't have helped me 10 days ago. Here's the situation. I'm in the middle of trying to migrate a small organization over from Windows 2000 DC's and Exchange 2000 to Windows Server 2003 + Exchange 2007, I run into what I am still dwelling on, no .pst import option. Well, the two biggest problems / pain in the  <!@%^%$#>  on this project was the fact that 1) Active Directory has inconsistencies 2) Exchange 2000 is installed on a Domain Controller. Now, what's the problem with that? I can't ADPREP Active Directory with inconsistencies that are not easily resolved. But, for fun let's ...
