At 12 years of networking CCNP Ent shouldn't be a huge effort, and python/json/yaml will be on the test. Sounds like you're lined up to knock out CCNP. You can always bridge off the Devnet stuff to get back on the coding rails.

Thank you

I have been asking myself a similar question as I study for the ENCOR exam. My personal conclusion was to finish ENCOR and take ENAUTO. I’d have CCNP Enterprise and already be halfway towards DevNet Professional if I wanted to pursue DEVCOR. I look at it as a guided way to learn something I want to learn anyway, and it’s nice to pickup a cert that may be required for a future job. Good luck!

Don't just get a certification to get it. If you're not working exclusively in network engineering it makes no sense to get a ccnp. Because it won't make you a network engineer. In my opinion you should always be learning what's easiest for you at the time. It sounds like that for you is programming

I've been a network engineer for 10 years. I guess what I'm asking for clarification is learning python better than testing on knowledge are mostly already know? My boss thinks certs are useless. I still have some I just completed arubas. I'm sort of burned out on tests to be honest.

Certifications are completely useless with 10 years of experience unless you work at a Var/MSP or if you want to market yourself. But with 10 years experience you should look more into getting a CCIE if you get any thing. Learning python will have a greater impact on your career at this point though. Or security

I wanted a CCIE, but I also enjoy having a sex life lol. Was going to do CISSP if I get approved.

Both. Forget D, nobody knows what it is and Python is well established as *the* programming language of network automation and has a thriving ecosystem built around it.

What is that. Like the successor to C?
