Re: CID test vs. CCIE written

2000-12-27 Thread Dennis

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.

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.

RE: CID test vs. CCIE written

2000-12-27 Thread Bowen, Shawn

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.

RIF = http://www.groupstudy.com/archives/cisco/199901/msg01626.html

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??

CL: sorta kinda
If you passed the CID yesterday and have not reviewed the CCIE written
blueprint, do not be surprised when you fail the written miserably.

Anybody have any feedback on that statement?

CL: all cisco tests I have taken cover similar topics. CCIE written was
different in that 1) specific  token ring / RIF / bridging is involved and
2) more specific questions regarding protocol behaviours.

Also, does anyone know if there are command line type ins on the CCIE
written?

CL: all the questions I saw on mine were multiple choice. Can't speak for
anyone else's tests.

well, maybe not. Fred's is 2 pages ;->

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.
