"Chase the skills and that will lead you to your dreams. " When Du'an starts preaching! 2) And this is from the Great Toni Morrison, who passed today: "When you get these jobs that you have been so brilliantly trained for, just remember that your real job is that if you are free, you need to free somebody else. If you have some power, then your job is to empower somebody else." Thank you Du'an for empowering us!

For those thinking of following the Network Engineer route along with all of it's paths, please remember you will always be running to keep current. The amount of information you will need to digest is staggering. I started out with ARCnet, TokenRing, Ethernet and Netware I finally retired last year after a very rewarding career which included teaching, test engineering and design engineering. The thing is the pace of change can ware you out. I know a number of folks that couldn't keep up and had to change fields. So while the rewards can be great it takes a lot of dedication to stay current. Good Luck

Im new to IT/networking and I just applied for a networking technician apprenticeship to then go on to be a network engineer... And the guy who interviewed me even said there's some new things that even he doesn't know yet... Would you suggest to go in to cyber security after being a network engineer?

He is so right! I chased the technology which allowed me to get the high paying contracts to build on my skills. Chasing the skills also allowed me to learn the technology so I could do very well in the interview to get the job. My advice is become a student of the game and in a few short years you will surprise yourself.

This really hits home. Pretty much how I see it. I’m working at a Network Admin now at a large site with small staff. We have engineers that work remotely nationwide and those are the kinds of skills they have. I’m actually taking a Cisco ISE class Tuesday morning. I thing that will be a great addidition the the ICND2 I’m working on. I have been looking at picking up more practical in demand skills after CCNA. Something that will compliment it. Then I may look into either the new CCNP or CCNP Security tracks. I just want to work on some practical things that can give me a foundation for future of Networking and Cloud. Thanks so much for sharing. This is the way to go.

I do not have any certs yet but I am working on some and I have both Linux and Windows skills along with Azure and AWS cloud skills. Having certs along with the experience is a great combo.

Good deal. The key is specialize. Done Viptela migrations, Ansible 4 years ago CLI/Tower and know just a bit of Python. ISE is interesting, yet been more gear toward WAN and some LAN using python automation. Overall, all points are valid with perhaps a bit of x86 (uCPE) vnf if you have a chance to play with a host with VMs.
