Re: Passed Switching today -- 3 Down, 1 to Go! [7:10108]
Congrats!!! I just signed up to this list and have started down the path for my CCNP and have my switching test scheduled in 2 weeks. Thanks for the info down below concerning what types of questions they are going to ask on the exam. Right now I am using the Exam Cram book + OJT in our lab. Will this be enough to pass? (I know it's hard to say... but just wondering if the Exam Cram covers enough to pass) Thanks!!! -Eric F.

Re: RouterSim 3.0 [7:11342]
I used the RouterSim 2.0. You can install it on different machines...but in order to use it on the other machine you have to remove the license and install it on the other. I did this..but with the 2.0 version is screwed me outright. What I mean is that I removed the license off of my laptop and tried to install it on my desktop system. It wouldn't install.. I then tried to reinstall it back on my laptop..nope! I tried reinstalling the entire program..NOPE! It wouldn't work at all now. I tried customer service... no help! I was out the money I paid for it. I hope 3.0 is much better in that regard. Bottom line: You can install the program on multiple systems and use the single license when you want to enable it on that particular system. -Eric Varner Bell Network Services MCNE, CCNA, CCNA 3 tests left for NP - Original Message - From: Tom Lisa To: Sent: Sunday, July 08, 2001 4:25 PM Subject: Re: RouterSim 3.0 [7:11342] > No matter how you slice it, it is still piracy.

It's covered in the Switching (briefly..but it's there).

Re: Can anyone help an aspiring CCNP? [7:11920]
IMO it was tougher than the CCNA test. Become one with CGMP and trunking. I used the Exam Cram and Cisco Press (Switching). I also used Keystones Video CD's and practice exam questions. (BTW I have this kit for sale on e-bay) I felt like I could have done a lot better with more studying. But, I felt like I was learning as I was going through the material instead of memorizing for a test. Some of the test questions are poorly written.

WTG George! I too became a CCNP (last Friday). The fact remains that your hard work has paid off and will reep the benefits of doing so.
