Reposting... Does anyone out there in the wild vast yonder of Cisco Cert Land know if Atalk and IPX are still on the CID 3.0 (640-025) test ?
It doesn't show up on the exam desciription... http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/10/wwtraining/certprog/testing/current_exam s/640-025.html Mahalo!

[7:65225] According to CID "lingo" a collapsed backbone is a single router or switch acting as a backbone in a campus design model. It contrasts with a distributed backbone where routers or switches are spread out among floors or buildings, all connected together via something like FDDI. (Yes, CID still has FDDI in it!) Maybe that picture you are looking at is an error. Good luck with CID. It's a fun one! :-) Priscilla Marc Thach Xuan Ky wrote: > > Hi all, > I thought I'd do 640-025 CID before it disappears, so I started > reading > the Ciscopress book, CID exam certification guide.
