RE: CID 640-025 - ?? [7:72205]
I don't think that we should divulge any specifics about tests but.you should now that the CCNP-class exams have recently gone through many changes (hence the tons of ccnp-class beta exams)..

[7:72205] Hello,Getting ready to take the 640-025 CID exam. Using Matthew H. Birkner's CID book from Cisco Press. Going over the topics covered in the exam @http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/10/wwtraining/certprog/testing/current _exams/640-025.htmlI noticed that there was NO mention of IPX, AppleTalk, Windows Networking and SNA Design at all? Why?Does this mean that these topics will NOT be tested on the exam even though the book has devoted chapters to these same topics?Please advise.Also, any tips regarding taking this exam is very well appreciated. I mean, are there any scenario type long questions with diagrams etc. asked or is it just like any other regular exam with multiple choice questions - just click a, b, c, d or e ?Thank you.Sincerely.

RE: CID (640-025)
Unless I'm reading this wrong the question refers to the CID test while the answer below refers to the DCN test. Read Advanced IP Network Design Cisco Press. Routing TCPIP - The illusive Jeff Doyle and IF you want CCIE network design fundamentals.
