The Cisco Certified Internetwork Engineer (CCIE) certification used to be the gold standard amongst network engineers 10-20 years ago.
Becoming a CCIE required a passing a notoriously difficult hands-on 8 hour in-person lab examination[1]. SysAdminsArena reminds me of a remote version of the CCIE Lab Exam for sysadmins.
Fun fact: the CCIE program was established in 1992 and was originally going to be called "Cisco Top Gun"[2], but they had to choose a more serious name.
