It’s been a long time coming and after numerous rumors it looks like Cisco is going to roll out a new CCIE track: Wireless!
Josh at the Internetwork Expert blog broke the ‘semi-official’ news from Networkers last week:
After speaking with multiple Cisco employees within the wireless group, the Wireless CCIE has been confirmed. Beta candidate registration should begin this fall, along with a blueprint release. Beginning early 2009 the Wireless CCIE beta testing will begin! As of now, topics of the test are expected to cover all aspects of wireless from design through implementation including the implications of security, routing and switching and voice technologies. Check back often for any additional information!
It looks like it will still probably be close to a year before the lab exam goes live. I’ll need that time to get up to speed.
