Someone Explain This to Me...

My guess is that they thought that the CCNA was a Linux cert and put it on by accident. I've seen several people make that mistake just today.

they dont need to do anything. They will get an applicant who can handle everything they are asking for. If you dont want to dabble in cisco, or you're not comfortable with learning it, just dont apply. why post it on this forum? what do you want us to say? "AJ, you're right!!! who needs cisco? who needs networks? nobody.
It's the title. They don't ask for a single cert related to being a Linux Admin but require a cert exclusively for Cisco Network work. It really is a bit odd. The description seems all Linux and the title is right... except for that one line. It's okay to want that, but it seems very odd that they require certification for something outside the job title and not a cert for the job itself.
Yup. I agree with all that.

They might think because so much of CCNA is CLI based that it's somehow a Linux cert? Only thing I can think of. If they even know what it stands for, it becomes pretty clear of their folly.

I constantly here people, even very experienced people, say that ESXi is derived from Linux because it runs a Bourne shell.
Facepalm

Wow ESXI is in no way linux, It doesn't even use a Linux Kernel it used a VMware custom made one. I'm not even sure if Xen does or not and that's a linux project.

I have to agree with several of the others - AJ you're being to picky. Yes they mention a specific cert, but it's desired, not required. The core of the job from the rest of the SMALL description is entirely linux.

Xen itself is Linux free. But 99% of deployments use Linux in the Dom0.
