RE: Advice CCIE/CCNP + Security

2000-12-14 Thread Philip Neeson

Hi Eric,

I'd take a different angle to Brian, I did my CCNP v1, CCDP and then MCNS &
CATM before my drake test.  I had my CVoice booked but time kindof got the
better of me. (That and the new CVoice2 Exam) As a refresher I also covered
the Routing 2 & Switching 2 Course Notes/Exams as this gave me a more
confidence and exposure to BGP, Multicasting, MLS etc..

I believe it all helped, yet when I look back probably 60-70% my Drake (CCIE
Written) I answered from experience not the few days worth of study I did
before hand.

It's an individual thing, I found CCprep and Certification.Zone sample Q's
helped me focus my study also.

Thanks,

Philip.

I personally would do the written first.  The CCIE written is not going to
be focused on security security securityso no sense in having that
all in your head.  But definitly take the CCNP security.  The lab has
security, voice and ATM so getting those specializations is a big help.
