Searching my own way...

Today I begin my journey to Cisco network again. Sometimes I think it's funny since I work in Juniper partner company but now studying Cisco. Well, the truth is I don't know whether my company will sponsor me again to take JNCIP test.

Cisco produce good network devices. Some are better than Juniper, some are on par and some are worse than Juniper. As an engineer, learning Cisco or Juniper is not a taboo. And Cisco has many things to learn since they invent their properietary protocols. Even on bgp protocols, they implement weight attribute which isn't advertised to neighboring bgp peer making everything in Cisco world seems different than other vendors which stick to the standard.

I just have to be careful here : not to be drowned in Cisco world otherwise when my company really give me another chance to take JNCIP, I will almost forget everything about Juniper :P.

Where were you Steve?

Last week, I suppose to be in official Datacomm meeting held in Mangga Dua hotel. But again, I decided not to come to the event. I have less reason to go to the meeting at that time. There are many things happened and yield a few people whom I don't like to see. I predicted they would come at the event so the best thing for me was not to attend it.

One of my colleagues asked me on the next morning about my whereabouts. I answered him that I didn't know. Then he asked me why I wouldn't come to the event because the food there were nice. I almost laugh but hide my emotions. For me, it is nicer to eat instant noodle rather than sit and eat expensive food at the restaurant with some people.

I don't know when I will start to attend such an event again. But at the moment I know I won't come. I don't have any desire or intention to do it......
