My name is Alexei Spirin aka asp13. Currently I'm a cisco gold partner's employee and team leader of network security group. I have been working with cisco devices since 1999 and.. you know... I like it :) My "major" is a security technologies and products but I have a good background in a backbone networks. I earned a CCIE Security in March 2006 with first attempt (yes, sometimes it happens :). My career changed to the management a bit since then but I'm still an engineer in my heart.

Hey! I supposed to talk about what CCIEvault is and what it is for, so I just tell you the basic principles:

1) First of all, this site was made as a place where I can keep professional information. I just forget everything all the time, so let it be here

2) Keep things easy, the goal is quick learning/recalling (quick and I hope not so dirty :)

3) Third rule is to provide my personal experience along with basic information (so called best-practices)

4) And fourth, last but not least, provide the next step(s), for those who need more detailed info,links to guides, sources or manuals.
