Re: MCNS EXAM - any pointers? besides the Book!!! [7:72760]
There is a new exam, called SECUR. With this exam, no PIX stuff is covered--only router stuff. I would definitely look at the objectives for the exam, since there is a bunch of new stuff, like Authentication proxy, IDS, and other stuff. Cheers!

Re: MCNS EXAM - any pointers? besides the Book!!! [7:72760]
You should be knowledgeable about everything in the Exam Guide. Many of the topics are not well covered in the MCNS book, but the Security Configuratio Guide is pretty good. http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/iosswrel/ps1835/products_configuration_guide_book09186a0080087df1.html mind the wrap. FWIW, some people I know think the MCNS (640-100) is a very poorly-written test.

Cisco 640-100 MCNS exam [7:71388]
PIX People, I am currently studying for Cisco's 640-100 MCNS exam and current study material seems a bit thin. I have the Boson package, pretty good, a good reference book that I have read about 3 time. I am looking for good study scenarios where one has to step through setting up a router, firewall etc. I am a CCNA, CCNP, and CCIE (written) --- a 98% correct score on that exam, so feel pretty good about things, BUT I can tell when study materail is not so good. I have purchase some study notes that are really bad, lots of mistakes. I recently purchased a nice new PIX 501 firewall with 3DES and am having fun. I need any and all good study sources that are also pertinent to what one is apt to see on the actual exam The mission is to understand, not figure out how to cheat on the exam, can anyone help?

Re: Cisco 640-100 MCNS exam [7:71388]
FWIW-- The 640-100 is being retired 30 Sep 2003, so you may want to consider taking the new SECUR exam (642-501), which just went active 17 Jun. Granted, there aren't a lot of materials published for it, but the published material for MCNS is poor. My opinion of the exam is shared by a more experienced old hand locally, who took the same exam not too long before I did. The exam was really quite poor -- lots of questions about configuration options in AAA (which options in authenticate vs. authorize, for instance). I recall very few -- if any -- questions about the PIX. Much of the information was, frankly, old, which is why I recommend the newer exam. Also, I had a handful of questions which were word-for-word the same as a commercial practice exam. That practice test was of very little use -- it did not reflect the exam content (and I am very unhappy with the explanations behind the answers). For more information, feel free to contact me offline, understanding I will not violate the NDA.

Hi Gunjan, I've read the Managing Cisco Network Security: ISBN:1578701031 published by www.ciscopress.com. It's a good book. Although, lenthy and currently outdated. Also, I'm currently reading Cisco Secure PIX Firewalls: ISBN:1587050358. I think it will be comprehensive. Until new books are written for the new exams these will do. I'm more interested in some updated practice exams for these two certs.

List of Security Refernces in MCNS Book [7:60363]
Hi all, Call me lazy (but not OLD!) but has anyone extracted a typed list of the Chapter References in the Cisco PRess MCNS book? If so, could you forward the list to me. I'm compiling a list of security references -- for use in my security studies -- and am hoping to use this as a jumping off point (I do realize that some of these references are outdated -- but it's only a starting point -- not an ending point!) I simply do not have enough time left in this life to individually type all these references. I am hoping to compile a fairly comprehensive list and then share it with everyone (probably on a web site.) Nope -- this is NOT aimed at certification -- rather it will be a byproduct to help us get some grounding and more than passing familiarity in the security field. Also, I'm certain that there are numerous web sites containg such lists already published -- but as a senior citizen, I'm not aware of all of them. So feel free to contribute listings and suggestions -- !!

The new MCNS exam is supposed to replace the current exam in October 2002 (probably in about a week or so) with new features. When the MCNS beta exam was available, Cisco made this announcement: The MCNS 641-100 BETA exam is the final step in preparation for the October 2002 launch of the revised MCNS exam. It focuses on the new material included in the new MCNS 3.0 course releasing August 2002. The MCNS 3.0 course fully replaces the existing MCNS 2.0 course.

RE: MCNS beta exam [7:51772]
In response to my alter ego:) I have now taken all 3 betas. There where no Comment button on any of them, which I suspect is by design. If so, my comments may have been directed at their ability to write English. All the tests were poorly written IMHO. The MCNS has questions on hardware that was not supposed to be on the test, and they would have questions asking you to do things, but not specifying which platform that they would like you to do them on. I find myself not having a clue whether I passed or failed the exams. If you would have asked me prior, I would have thought that I could sleep through them and pass, so I dunno. All the feedback that I have received on the test seems to indicate that I wasn't the only one that had that opinion. What is your opinions...?

Re: MCNS beta exam [7:51773]
I gave the MCNS exam today. I agree with the quality of questions. There were few questions that didn't had the correct answers to them, i.e. all the options were wrong.

Scott, Think of it in terms of burglarizing a house.

RE: MCNS Exam Papers [7:50278]
I say to be honest, if you use a boson test, or any other software and you directly benefit off that software, then you should buy the product. People are honest for the most part, if you are directly benefiting off some piece of software, then send the money in. We are an MSDN site, and if you want to set up a lab to test Exchange 2000 SP3 at home, in a lab, I do not see a problem with it. Esp. if you are going to reformat the server when you are done. This is not illegal; because that is what a development, set is used for. Cisco does not have a development program, as far as I am aware. I have a licensed copy of IOS firewall for my 2501, but I am not sure what Cisco policy is for using Firewall IOS for training use (non-production environment). Maybe Cisco could make some IOS that are for training only? Like an IOS development kit. I also thought about this. If someone stole my car, it is gone. However, what if someone made a copy of it, and drove it around? I guess they should pay licensing fees to Pontiac, for all those workers and their families who helped build first car. On the other hand, for the car they did not build, because someone was using a copy of mine. Licenses are very tricky, they have to write everything in the book to cover themselves. (kind of like my health benefits) I am honest, but sometimes is not possible not to break a licensing agreement by accident. I think if you benefit from the product, you should pay. If you steal the boson tests, and pass your CCNP, then that is not right. That being said, no one should throw stones. Everyone is human. However, to directly benefit off someone else's material with no intention to pay, I do not think you should walk with your head up if you did that. If you do not pay in cash, you pay in other ways walking around with a guilty conscience. You are welcome to use this common sense approach on metering your software usage.

RE: MCNS Exam Papers *sigh* [7:50202]
First, I resent the fact that you make a bold assumption that EVERYONE does things as you may do. Second, there are borderline rules about things like Napster and such. (Read the court cases in case you're curious) And whether you quietly do it in your own home is a different story and different problem. When you take something to use for your PROFIT (getting a certification yields profit) that's different. When you BLATANTLY ask for the crack in a public forum, that's different. Do you see anyone going around and asking for a copy of the .NET servers so they run an ISP??? No. If you want to test them out, you get 120 day evals for free. If you want to test the Boson out, you download it for free and get a few questions. If you want to use the WHOLE thing for profit, you BUY the damned thing. This isn't an argument about being an angel or not. I'm fully aware of the arguments on both sides of the issue. However, there's no grey maybe area for a certification test. So quit being uppity and retarded about the whole concept and spend your $35. If you don't manage to make that money back in a year from your certification, send me an e-mail, and IFrom: Scott Morris Reply-To: Scott Morris To: CC: Subject: RE: MCNS Exam Papers Date: Tue, 30 Jul 2002 17:39:16 -0400 And there's great logic coming from the new security professionals who want to keep things secure on your network... Sure, you can trust 'em, I mean... They're not doing anything REALLY illegal, because other things cost too much. You're trying to tell me that $35 is too expensive for you? First, it's a far cry from several hundred for other products. However, the bottom line is that if you REALLY use something, and you obviously find value in it (otherwise you wouldn't be asking for it), then just buy the damned thing.

I guess this would be the wrong time bring up all of the properly licensed copies of Enterprise FW/IDS IOS out there in the world...? ...yeah, I thought so, too.

Preparing for MCNS [7:28480]
Hello All, First off let me thank everyone who participates on this list, very helpful folks ;) Now down to business, I am getting close to taking the MCNS exam, and so far I have only used the Cisco Press book Managing Cisco Network Security, I read it through 3 times and feel I have a good grasp on the material. I also have read over numerous white papers and documents from CCO which I thought would be helpful to me. I have the Cisco exam blueprint and have tried my best to map my efforts to the blueprint. I am also planning on purchasing the Boson MCNS practice exam, and have checked the resources available at www.cramsession.com, mostly the posts related to the exam and the Exam Cram document. Any other helpful books, sites, software that may be useful? Also, without breaking NDA of course, anyone know if there is any overlap between MCNS and and PIX exam? Thanks in advance for any advice, -Zeke Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7i=28480t=28480 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The MCNS course materials (I took it through Global Knowledge) were a great source: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1578701031/qid=1007671411/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_7_1/103-8821679-8073459 (mind the wrap) and I'd recommend Boson test #2 - some questions were virtually word-for-word. One down, three to go.

MCNS Question [7:27064]
It would be greatly appreciated if anyone could give me a hand on this. I have read the MCNS Ciscopress several times (in particular between Chapter 15 to 18), yet I am still very confused about this: For IKE Authentication, I understand that one can use either: pre-shared keys = crypto isakmp policy 100 authentication pre-share or RSA. = (more scalable than Pre-shared key) crypto isakmp policy 100 authentication rsa-sig However, on RSA, what is the difference between RSA encrypted nonces and RSA Signatures?

Re: MCNS Exam vs. CSPFA Exam [7:15238]
I need a little more advice from you. You are saying that I should take either CSPFA or CSVPN first, take MCNS third. Take IDSPM last. What reference material do I need to prepare for the CSPFA and CSVPN? I have the CSPFF and CSPFA version 1.0 course notes and Cisco Press MCNS coursebook. What about IDSPM?

Re: MCNS 2.0 [7:12091]
Hi, I prepared using Michael Wenstrom book and Donald C. Lee`s book (Enhanced IP Services for Cisco Networks, Chapter 6-8 ISBN 1-57870-106-6). I think Donald`s book is easy to understand than Michael`s which looks like a manual that anyone can download from CCO. Understanding the concept to pass this exam is not enough, since there are a lot of Qs regarding the CLI (fo PIX or IOS) to configure IPSec and CBAC.

That book is good enough, concentrate on Chapters 1 thru 3 and 13 thru 14 inclusive. When i took the exam there were very few CLI type questions, at least 70% on putting together a security policy and PKI, IKE, ISAKMP etc. As to CLI understand things like how to clear the NAT table, what NAT 0(Zero) does, and the process of AAA, Radius TACACS+ Good Luck fahim wrote: Hi group Have anyone studying for MCNS 2.0 or given the exam???/ If so, what books need to be prepared apart from Cisco press book written by Michael Wenstrom.

Re: CCNP Security MCNS CIDS exam coursework ? [7:4503]
The currrent MCNS book really isn't too bad. The beginning chapters are generalish fluff, but the configuration chapters give you essentially exactly what the test is going to throw at you. I used the first set of Boson practice tests. They were riddled with errors and confusion in the ways I'm used to from them, but they get the job done and do make you more comfortable with the content. I don't regret the 29$ expense. Haven't seen ANYTHING on IDS, and it's the only test I have left. Our company doesn't really consider Cisco a big player in the IDS field, so I've never even seen the gear to learn from. I'm thinking about reading up on cisco.com and taking the test anyway, to see if it's doable. -Brad McConnell. David Heaton wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]...
