I can only echo some of the other voices, IT tech jobs are some of those on the line along with the management at our School.

The problem is there is too much info on Ciscos site. I agree, far more than anyone else. Did you mean Network Academy : Cisco, Microsoft, VMware, Nortel, CompTIA certification ? Think it might be time to do some Cisco stuff. Only done self taught Microsoft stuff to date.

Anybody had any experience of Cisco IOS firewalls? I will have to configure one shortly and have been told two very different stories. One is that they are GUI based devices (using SDM) and have wizzards to set them up. The other is that they require in depth knowledge of Cisco's programing language even with the GUI. I can use linux command line and have once set up a cisco router. I have set up a checkpoint firewall too. Just not sure if I'm ready for Cisco!
