I passed the CCIE Written yesterday morning. I had taken the CCIE written
about a month ago but the test crashed and I had to fight with Cisco and
Prometric for a month before I could take it again for free. I read
Caslow's book, Routing TCP/IP Vol. 1 by Jeff Doyle, the token ring white
papers and the exam cram book. The token ring white papers were very
helpful in understanding bridging because I do not work with it at all. I
already had my CCNP and CCDP so this also helped and I would not recommend
taking the CCIE written without having finished at least your CCNP
certification. I also took the certification zone test before I took the
exam last month, and it was not that helpful.
I am planning to take schedule the lab for this summer. I am going to
purchase the Solutions Labs and the ccbootcamp labs today and use them to
study. I work for a Cisco reseller so I have plenty of equipment sitting
around to use for study labs. My company has said they will pay for
training so I am looking at Global Knowledge and IT Academy prep courses.
If anyone has any recommendations on training please let me know.
