RE: Passed BCRAN [7:45182]
Thanks to everyone for your input, I heard it wasn't that bad compared to the other 3. If you know the material from those it shouldn't be that bad. Plus I have some SNA experience from way back in 89' - wow dating myself. I hope to read/study/do home labs and pass by mid July. Thanks again to all for input. Remember, wherever you go - there you are.

Totally self evident, about 4 other quite obvioius answers in that list as well regarding DLCI numbers and dialer-maps, the number specified in the question only appears once in the list of commands Looks like you could grab a guy of the street and they would get 500 by deduction and guessing. While I like the list of commands, as I'm a very poor rote learner and have a hell of a time remebering where the hypens go, as well as I speak English rather than Amerish, ( Neighbour gives you no marks in the exam, but as I never type the whole command in the CLI, you tend to default to what they taught you in school ). But I do feel it is critical that the command list be extended so there is 3 or 4 possible options for any given value. ( yes, I did leave comments in the exam ) What did I get wrong ? The stuff I didn't study, what models have what capabilites ( Like I'm going to spec up an install without checking the website ) and the 700 series ( I just ignored it, no use confusing yourself with another command line for 5 or 6 marks and I've never encountered one yet ) So onto the home straight.CIT and I'm a CCNP I also share your feeling. Took this test today, and frankly speaking, I didn't feel that I'm deserved to have a pass (missed many questions in async/PPP, ISDN protocols), however, because of this easy way to guess a command, I barely passed with 819. for me, 2 more to go (switching, CIT) to the CCNP.

RE: Passed BCRAN [7:24213]
I must respectfully disagree on the BCRAN being so easy for one simple reason: there were some questions that were simply unfair. Let me preface it by saying that I passed it a few days ago with an 875. Now, here's my beef with the test. There were some questions that asked for one answer, where given the information, more than one answer was correct. One of those that specifically comes to mind had to do with setting up a frame-relay connection and it wanted a single answer. It did not tell you what version of the IOS was running, but two, out of a list of 5 or 6 possibilities were assign it statically using the frame map command which seems right to me, and assign it dynamically using inverse ARP, which is also correct if you are running IOS 11.3 or later. I, of course entered my comments on it. There were other questions that had only one correct answer, but asked for two choices. One of those that I recall had to do with PPP Multilink, and which technologies could use it. The possibilities were Ethernet, Token Ring, ISDN, and some other LAN technology. Unless I've missed something, PPP multilink would only work, in that scenario using ISDN. But I had to pick 2!! The fill in the blank questions, like you stated, were REALLY easy, especially when they even go so far as to put things in the possible options as the exact number of the dialer list that's contained within the question, etc. Kinda dumb, but I guess that's their way of making up for the impossible to answer questions like those I mentioned above. For what it's worth. Brian Andy Hoang wrote: That's funny. The same thing happened to me on the BCRAN exam.

Passed BCRAN - 943 [7:18479]
Hi all, Been a while. Had a bit of a break from studying (CCNP at least). Spent the past week going through the book and passed BCRAN today with a 943. Chuffed to bits with result. Especially as I was fairly certain of 3 out of the 4 questions I got wrong. Two of them pretty obscure and not bothered about them at all. 62 questions - 706 to pass - 75 minutes. Very few questions asking for typed commands, except the ones where you select the command from a list then type it in. Used the Cisco Press BCRAN book and one of the Boson exams to get an idea of question format. Exam seemed to cover most areas of the book including glimpses of the wonderful 700. I must admit I was not over impressed with the book. It seems to have a hell of a lot of errors considering the age of most of the content. I've already done the routing and switching using the Cisco Press books, which I thought were excellent, but I was getting pretty sick of the lack of explanation in the BCRAN book. But, having said that, if you read all of the book, including Appendices, it's all there. Anyway, on to the last exam - CIT, scheduled for next Tuesday at the moment, bit optimistic, but being pushed by my company who need it for Gold certification. I've been plodding along for a while so time to get stuff done! Thanks again to all on the group who have probably provided more of an education/inspiration than any of the books.

Passed BCRAN [7:13433]
Hello Groupies, Just coming back from BCRAN exam. I passed with a score of 898. Passing score was 706. Total 62 questions. Time limit was 1hr 15mins. Was able to do it well within time. To my astonishment there were only 3 questions on 700 series. There were 4/5 questions on 1600 configs. There were questions about the correct command syntax...but I had to choose from a list of commands in the exibit. There were only 2 scenario questions, both were on FR. There were couple of AAA questions and Network Security questions and 4 NAT questions. I prepared with Paquet's BCRAN book from Cisco Press. I think I can only expect 898 for 10 days prep :). Thanks to all great contributors in this list. It was really helpful. I learnt a couple of things from some of the threads, like I need to know about the 1600 configs, etc. Also I should say, working with some of the products and hands on experience really helps. Let's see how and when I am able to pass the other 2 exams to become a CCNP. Any inputs on BSCN and Support exams welcome. Thanks Sudarshan __ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: Passed BCRAN [7:13433]
Let's see how and when I am able to pass the other 2 exams to become a CCNP. Any inputs on BSCN and Support exams welcome. For me BSCN was harder than BCRAN and Support was easier. I recommend taking Support last since is it basically a review of the other three tests but from a Support point of view Plus extra troubleshooting related questions.

BOTH books had a single, small paragraph on the 1600 series tho saying it's for branch not SOHO and takes a WIC card. THAT'S IT! I went through all 4 quizzes in both of the Boson BCRAN exam 1 and 2 (over 400 questions) and I kept getting hammered with questions about the Cisco 1600 and what interfaces the different models had (something neither book had any details about). Lucky for me I tried to take note, instead of blowing it off, because I got as many if not more questions about Which model of 1600 has a 56K/ISDN/Serial port than I did about the Cisco 700. I have to say that I'm disappointed that there were so many questions about the 1600 series compared to the 700 series, yet the Cisco Press and Exam Cram book barely mentioned them I can't believe the Cisco Press book dedicated a very lengthy chapter to the 700 with so few questions on the exam while virtually ignoring the 1600! KUDOS TO BOSON for making practice exams that not only are a good simulation of the real exams but also covered material that exam creators didn't even include in their own study book (Cisco!). I owe my 898 to Boson for hammering me with 1600 questions and letting me get the info I needed for the real exam while I was practicing for it. Now on to Support for CCNP then CID for CCDP Woohoo!

RE: PASSED BCRAN! + BIG gripe [7:7794]
Thanks for the comment about the Sybex book. ;) Note, there is a lot of commenting on the 'lack' of 700 series material on the RA exam. All RA books have this material because it is in the objectives. Cisco can, and does, change material from time to time, and it seems clear that the 700 material was removed in part - be thankful that it did. The platform really is a hybrid, and there is little that the 800 or 1600 cannot provide for a reasonable price/performance. Please do not be upset with the authors re the 700 material. We base the books on the objectives and our experiences. --- Raees Ahmed Shaikh wrote: This is ridicously serious, are u joking I guess if he reads the question alone without answering them it will taken him more time than that.

Hello all.. Passed the BCRAN with an 898 today. not a bad exam. A couple of vague questions (or questions that seemed to have more than one correct answer but only one answer was asked for). Even took time to write some comments and finished in 35 minutes. One HUGE gripe: The Cisco Press book had a huge chapter on the Cisco 700. The Exam Cram Remote Access book had a pared down chapter on the 700 just highlighting the stuff you need to know for the exam (which was nice). I had maybe 2 or 3 questions about the 700 series. BOTH books had a single, small paragraph on the 1600 series tho saying it's for branch not SOHO and takes a WIC card. THAT'S IT! I went through all 4 quizzes in both of the Boson BCRAN exam 1 and 2 (over 400 questions) and I kept getting hammered with questions about the Cisco 1600 and what interfaces the different models had (something neither book had any details about). Lucky for me I tried to take note, instead of blowing it off, because I got as many if not more questions about Which model of 1600 has a 56K/ISDN/Serial port than I did about the Cisco 700. I have to say that I'm disappointed that there were so many questions about the 1600 series compared to the 700 series, yet the Cisco Press and Exam Cram book barely mentioned them I can't believe the Cisco Press book dedicated a very lengthy chapter to the 700 with so few questions on the exam while virtually ignoring the 1600! KUDOS TO BOSON for making practice exams that not only are a good simulation of the real exams but also covered material that exam creators didn't even include in their own study book (Cisco!). I owe my 898 to Boson for hammering me with 1600 questions and letting me get the info I needed for the real exam while I was practicing for it. Now on to Support for CCNP then CID for CCDP Woohoo! Thanks to everyone for the group.. seeing people in the group talking and passing exams motivates me to keep going! Mike W.

Re: PASSED BCRAN! + BIG gripe [7:7794]
If you look at the objectives for the exam and all of the books, each spend a lot of effort on the 700 series. The beta and live exams that I've seen had a lot (roughly 10). It would appear that with the death of the product line they've killed the questions too. ;) --- Michael L. Williams wrote: Hello all.. Passed the BCRAN with an 898 today. not a bad exam.

Just sqeaked by, but I passed !!! 1 more to go for CCNP then the hard stuff begins !! :-) I found the test to be a bit misleading. Many of the questions did not ask enough of a question to actually give a difinitive answer, and 1 question on x25 mappings the answer WAS NOT EVEN LISTED I commented on that one and moved on.

Thought I would drop a line letting you know that I passed my BCRAN exam today, my final score was 849/1000. I was suprised by the amount of design oriented questions and there was a very large focus on isdn technology.

Passed BCRAN
I passed my BCRAN today on the first try. Thanks to all who have contributed. I used on the job knowledge, the McGraw Hill (Thomas) BCRAN Book, and the Cisco Press BCRAN book in combination with the COLT BCRAN practice tests. I have seen alot of mixed feelings over the COLT tests, I had two questions that were both on the COLT test and the real exam. If you don't use async lines and modems alot in the field definately study up on modem configuration, autoconfig and modemcap areas. I got hammered on this stuff.

Re: passed bcran
Thanks! I used bcran e-learning thing by cisco, syngress book and boson tests. boson test #1 is good. #2 is almoust the same. DDR, frame relay, ISDN. not much of x25, nat and aaa. lot of product. two-minute drills from syngress book are good. Regards George PYF wrote: George, Congratulations! For the BSCN I have taken, only one to two questions are related to product description and the rest are mainly OSPF BGP stuff (more than 50%). So, study hard for the above two topics (but don't forget EIGRP!!!). I am going to take BCRAN next week, would you mind telling me what resources you used for preparing the exam.

Re: passed bcran
Raheem, I only had the BRCAN book to study and it covered all you need to know. The thing is to know all what is in the book. I found that in everyday life the stuff in the BCRAN was the most useful of all the exams. Then again I guess that depends on what you do and the sort of networks you run. Each topic had its place.

Passed BCRAN was RE: Recommended Books for BCMSN BCRAN
Take a look at the archives about BCMSN. There was a message from me 2 months ago about BCMSN books. I passed BCRAN yesterday and here are the studymaterial that I used: Books: - Building Cisco Remote access Networks by Pacquet et al. Cisco press. It is good to have for the exam bechause it is based on the BCRAN course and it helps you to consentrate on the right subjects. - BCRAN Building Cisco Remote access networks by Tom Thomas II.Macraw Hill It is an excellent book and much better than his BCMSN book. It explains everything in details. - Cisco IOS 12.0 Dial solutions. Cisco Press. This book contains everything about dial up networking. I am definetly going to read it again for the CCIE. - Remote Access Exam Cram. It was not as good as the Exam Cram for the BCMSN Other materials -Papers from www.cisco.com - Cramsession from www.cramsession.com. It was excellent paper to brush up few hours for the exam and much better than the cramsession paper for BCMSN. - Experience. On the job experience. I could set up a lab with 1 3620 one 800, 2500 and 2600 to play with.

Passed BCRAN
I passed BCRAN today with an 846 (706 to pass). It wasn't nearly as difficult as I was expecting. I used the Cisco Press BCRAN book by Catherin Paquet. I read the book once, skimmed it a second time, then reviewed a few chapters. I wrote out lots and lots of config fragments for practice. That's it. Jeff **NOTE: New CCNA/CCDA List has been formed.

Re: Passed BCRAN
Congratulations on passing BCRAN. However, if you used the Paquet CiscoPress book, I wouldn't exactly call it reviewing a few chapters. Rewriting a few chapters would be more accurate! This book has glaring errors on just about every page, and I am astonished that CiscoPress doesn't have a link to an errata for it. The errors are not merely typos, but whole sections of commands repeated with the same error (example "dialer-map" instead of "dialer map"), completely misleading and erroneous information about "dialer enable-timeout" and "dialer hold-cue", etc. And who can forget the assertion that you use Reverse Telnet through Windows 95 HyperTerminal to configure a modem attached directly to the local PC! After reviewing the material on the Cisco web-site I realized that Cisco could have presented questions that could have failed nearly everyone if they wanted to. Even Cisco's own documentation occasionally has errors. Regards, MLC "Jeffrey Eiber" [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message 8pbc1n$ois$[EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:8pbc1n$ois$[EMAIL PROTECTED]...

Re: Passed BCRAN
I'm confused. Is the test that everyone's talking about passing the "BCRAN" or the "Remote Access" exam? So far I've been reading them as one and the same, but since the BCRAN book from Cisco Press (which I own) is supposed to cover the same material as the BCRAN (class), not an Exam Guide (Cisco Press says their Remote Access exam guide will be out in December), I'm starting to wonder. I thought the BCRAN (class) was supposed to be good preparation for the Remote Access exam, but that there was no actual BCRAN test? -Ian "Jeffrey Eiber" wrote in message 8pbc1n$ois$[EMAIL PROTECTED]...

Actually not :-) I never buy books at Amazon anymore (unless I can't find them anywhere else). I always buy them at http://www.booksamillion.com if they have them, or look at http://www.bookpool.com for a good price and availability. The reason for the amazon link is that that is where I could find a picture of the book, and they have good reviews.

Re: Passed BCRAN today!!
Don't undervalue X.25. It is still in use within the US, but in Europe and other places around the globe, X.25 is very widely used. As Cisco is a global company, your certification should be globally based and not based on what is in use in the US today.

Just passed the BCRAN today. I used the Cisco Press Builiding Cisco Remote Access Networks book and the boson exams. The test was easier than the others (ACRC, CLSC). I was suprised to find so many x25 questions in such a new exam. Cant actually tell you any questions but I would know you ISDN commands, X25, and Frame-Relay. Now on to CIT!!!
