I was thinking of getting the Linux+ as a primer to the RHCSA/RHCE since I don’t actually work with linux professionally. There are a lot of Network Engineer jobs in my area that want Unix/Linux knowledge. After CCNP:S in a couple of months I might pick up Linux+/LPIC-1 for fun along with CWNA/CWSP (which not very many people have…

You learn some RF basics, but it’s not one where you learn about all wireless technologies (i.e. Bluetooth, ZigBee, RFID, etc.). Check out the exam objectives: http://www.cwnp.com/exams/pw0104_objectives.pdf

I’ve looked at the jobs. Most of them want the skills I have described (*nix, packet analysis, wireless, etc). But that doesn’t mean I should certify in all of those areas. I guess most bang for my buck is what I am looking for. I know CISSP would offer that but I want to be a bit more rounded before I take it.
I thought about it and I think I…[Read more]

I’ve read it for the most part (still need to finish up the Tshark stuff). I was looking for something that would be a low cost version of the GCIA training. 4500 isn’t happening anytime soon.

Don’t be too worried. The CCNA:S is like Security+ but from Cisco. You can probably study up and pass it without too much work. I think my CCNA took me like 5 months but the CCNA:Security took like a month and a half.

You will be able to do the CEH6 for 6 months after the release of CEH7. I did call ECcouncil to confirm that. I picked up the CEH book tonight. I plan to take it in April or so.
yeah, but the v7 looks so much better!

BillV replied to the topic EC-Council and CEHv7 in the forum CEH – Certified Ethical Hacker 10 years, 1 month ago
@knwminus: I agree with both points – that too many holders may lower the value and that a practical would be a good thing. While the CEH is still meant to be an introductory/intermediate level certification, I would like to see the follow-on LPT have a practical.
