Cisco conference call

I had a conference call at work today with a couple of Cisco sales reps. The point of the conference call was to discuss the Cisco NAC evaluation taking place later this week. The conference call took place using WebEx. It was a little strange using WebEx for a phone conference call. Everyone where I work that was also involved in the call, as well as myself, thought that the Cisco reps were going to do a video demonstration but they didn’t.

The Cisco reps wanted to nail down a few details before the evaluation took place. The main points discussed were what we were looking for, how our network is currently set up and what we hoped to gain using the Cisco NAC. I’m really looking forward to checking out their system.

One big highlight that came out of the meeting was that I’m getting a chance to attend a Cisco CCNA boot camp for free. The CCNA training will be held at a local Cisco office. They are still trying to nail down the exact dates for the week long training. Once they get that, someone from the Cisco office is going to email me. A $2300 training course for free? I’ll take that in a heart beat.

    You mean you WANT your job to entail more responsibility? ;)

    No, no…I’ll just be a back up in case one of the network engineers isn’t around. At least that’s what they told me. ;)

    Either that or it will help you get a better paying job somewhere else! ;)
