> <DIV></DIV>>I passed the written today! It was a tough exam, with some
funky worded

> <DIV></DIV>>I have been in this business for 16 years and hold over 25
certs. I have
> <DIV></DIV>>been supporting Cisco gear for over 8 years. I obtained my
CCNP/DP in five

while (9 months),
> <DIV></DIV>>so I had to study for a month on old junk I had forgotten
or haven't used
> <DIV></DIV>>since 1994. Thank god for my CNX. I have been in networking
before 10base-T
> <DIV></DIV>>and Token-Ring.(Can someone say Lattisnet???) Man... I
lived Token-Ring from
> <DIV></DIV>>1989-1996. This was one funky exam. This exam is somewhat
harder then the
> <DIV></DIV>>ACRC, but ACRC is more focused, this one tests your
knowledge across a broad
> <DIV></DIV>>scope of topics, so study hard.
> <DIV></DIV>>
> <DIV></DIV>>Some study suggestion, if you feel they can help..
> <DIV></DIV>>
> <DIV></DIV>>If you have no TR knowledge try to obtain the Laura
Chappell, "Novell's
> <DIV></DIV>>Guide to Netware Lan Analysis" (ISBN 0-7821-1362-1) It may
be out of print
> <DIV></DIV>>or in it's 3rd or 4th edition. Excellent on TR, IPX, SRB,
Spanning Tree for
> <DIV></DIV>>SRB. Also, if you can get your hands on an "IBM TR
Architecture Reference",
> <DIV></DIV>>then this will explain everything you ever needed to know
about the RIF.
> <DIV></DIV>>
> <DIV></DIV>>The new Sybex book is only good for a basic cursory review.
It also has lots
> <DIV></DIV>>of errors so be careful. Read or review the books listed on
the recommended
> <DIV></DIV>>reading list, review all of the links on CCO under the
blueprint. And most
> <DIV></DIV>>of all, KNOW YOUR PROTOCOLS IN AND OUT. This may be
overkill but it will be
> <DIV></DIV>>worth it.
> <DIV></DIV>>
> <DIV></DIV>>Having your CCNP/DP and/or CNX will make things a little
easier, especially
> <DIV></DIV>>if you go for the written right after obtaining your NP/DP.
> <DIV></DIV>>
> <DIV></DIV>>Own, borrow, or use a freeware protocol analyzer. Learn the
protocols. Here
> <DIV></DIV>>is a cool site that was listed for a protocol analyzer
> <DIV></DIV>>
> <DIV></DIV>>http://www.ethereal.com/
> <DIV></DIV>>
> <DIV></DIV>>Someone wrote in this board to "be the packet" To add to
that "be the
> <DIV></DIV>>protocol analyzer"
> <DIV></DIV>>
> <DIV></DIV>>I want to thank everyone on this list for their questions,
answers and
> <DIV></DIV>>helping each other out. Your information provided me a
small clue on what to
> <DIV></DIV>>expect and how to prepare for the written. You guys are a
great and
> <DIV></DIV>>dedicated bunch, good luck to all. See you in the LAB,
aaaaggguuuhhhh..
