Thanks dre This will definitely helps. --- dre wrote: Try setting up examples from IP Quality of Service. I read the book before the exam, and it was good, but I would have rather had some time to configure up a bunch of examples. Even better would be to read http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios122/122cgcr/fqos_c/index.htm and http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios122/122cgcr/fqos_r/index.htm especially http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios122/122cgcr/fqos_c/fqcprt2/index.htm -dre On Sat, Apr 27, 2002 at 07:11:03PM -0700, Shahid Muhammad Shafi wrote: Hey Dre, Thanks for ur email..

What's ITM? I'm sure once you tell me what it is, I'll say DOH! dre wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... I took the CCIE RS Beta this afternoon, here's what I experienced: About 1/5 of the exam I thought should be on the CCNA instead (Make sure you know ITM well for this part) About 1/5 of the exam I only knew because of my 5 years+ IP/Ethernet Cat5k/Cat6k/7x00 experience (especially know IP Multicast, OSPF, BGP, STP, VLAN, UDLD, VACL/RACL, etc) About 1/5 of the exam I thought were really math questions and not Cisco questions (Know various QoS case scenarios from IP, FR, ATM, etc) About 1/5 of the exam I figured only a person who worked 5 years+ doing IPX would know About 1/5 of the exam I figured only a person who worked 5 years+ doing SNA/DLSw+ would know Which means I probably got 2/5's of the test's answers wrong, putting me ~60%. I hope the pass rate is near that number. When you go through the blueprint, do not skip over anything; it's all on the exam. The insight that there are a lot of IP Multicast and Catalyst 6500 questions was true in my experience as well. If you don't know those down cold, you probably shouldn't bother taking the test. Cisco LAN Switching is not enough to get by, but Routing TCP/IP Volume II is probably the best book you could read that covers a lot of the material (lucky I read this the night before the exam). If you are lacking in any areas, reading isn't going to help too too much since a lot of the questions are really exercises with real world examples and interesting concepts that can only be applied with hands-on exposure. Make sure you get that hands-on exposure if you aren't working with it day-to-day. -dre Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7i=42780t=42761 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: CCIE RS Beta Experience [7:42761]
most written tests are written by folks who love writing questions that folks will get confused over or how really obscure, the written tests shlould be interactibve and test your cisco knowledge rather than your maths experience, From: dre Reply-To: dre To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: CCIE RS Beta Experience [7:42761] Date: Sat, 27 Apr 2002 19:56:53 -0400 I took the CCIE RS Beta this afternoon, here's what I experienced: About 1/5 of the exam I thought should be on the CCNA instead (Make sure you know ITM well for this part) About 1/5 of the exam I only knew because of my 5 years+ IP/Ethernet Cat5k/Cat6k/7x00 experience (especially know IP Multicast, OSPF, BGP, STP, VLAN, UDLD, VACL/RACL, etc) About 1/5 of the exam I thought were really math questions and not Cisco questions (Know various QoS case scenarios from IP, FR, ATM, etc) About 1/5 of the exam I figured only a person who worked 5 years+ doing IPX would know About 1/5 of the exam I figured only a person who worked 5 years+ doing SNA/DLSw+ would know Which means I probably got 2/5's of the test's answers wrong, putting me ~60%.
