Re: CID test vs. CCIE written
Thanks for the good feedback. The Rossi (ccprep) token ring paper looks like the best one to help prepare for the test. I knew about it but had forgotten. (yikes, already forgetting stuff.) Just talked to Lou last week and they just started a CCIE lab bootcamp down in Tampa. Pre-req for taking the class is passing the written. I plan on passing the written by end of January then heading down to Tampa hopefully while it is still cold here in New England.. Thanks again for the quik and helpful replies. -dennis ""Dennis"" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message 92dhq0$cf6$[EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:92dhq0$cf6$[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > Just took and passed the CID test.

RE: CID test vs. CCIE written
I remember in the Ciscopress ACRC book there was some good info on RII and RIF's which were part of the section going over SRT bridging. I bet the book to get would be the CCIE LAN switching book. Then again I bet neither of those has only one page on this info. >>>Brian >From: "Chuck Larrieu" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: "Chuck Larrieu" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: "Dennis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: RE: CID test vs. CCIE written >Date: Wed, 27 Dec 2000 11:20:44 -0800 > >Comments below > >-Original Message- >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of >Dennis >Sent: Wednesday, December 27, 2000 10:58 AM >To:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: CID test vs. CCIE written > >Just took and passed the CID test.

RE: CID test vs. CCIE written
It is similar in length, but it encompasses different items. The "feel" is similar, though you can go back through your answers on the written as many times as you want. I don't care what Cisco's www site says, it still has TON's of Token Ring questions, you better know RIF's really well. There is ATM and LANE on it as well. Also some very detailed circuit questions. IPX framing questions, basic DLSW, and STUN were on it as well. I took both of these last week, CID on Monday and CCIE on Tuesday, I was still amazed at some of the abstract crap they through at me. Good luck, Shawn P.S.

Re: CID test vs. CCIE written
This is as close as it gets (the best paper I've found)... http://www.ccprep.com/resources/news/archives/Token_Ring2.pdf I believe that you will be pretty satisfied with the material within, even though it's 23 pages. -dre ""Dennis"" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message 92dhq0$cf6$[EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:92dhq0$cf6$[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > And can anyone recommend a good 'one-pager' on RIF's, Token Ring, bridging, > etc?? _ FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
CID test vs. CCIE written
Just took and passed the CID test. I have heard that this test is similar in scope to the CCIE R/S qualification test. Anybody have any feedback on that statement? Also, does anyone know if there are command line type ins on the CCIE written? And can anyone recommend a good 'one-pager' on RIF's, Token Ring, bridging, etc??
