CartThe Service Provider CCIE track offers a number of enticements to CCIE candidates. However, it is one of the most overlooked tracks, comprising only about 6% of CCIE numbers (about half as many as Security) and only 2% of R&S CCIEs undertake it successfully.
Looking at these numbers, I find that quite an oddity. Obviously, R&S is by far the most popular track and, like most people, it was the first that I undertook. By far the greatest intellectual achievement of my lifetime was obtaining my first CCIE. However, having done so like many people with the study bug, it is worth considering what to study next.
