RE: Topics covered for the CID 640-025 exam?? [7:72479]

Dear Cisco Nuts,

Okay, they will ask some questions on desktop networking: broadcasts and
that kind of stuff. I think you have to read that chapter in the CID book
(Windows Networking).

Otherwise, you should be fine with Cisco Internetwork Design (CID) course
book: know it inside out because everything is there, and it can confuse if
not covered thoroughly.

I did it twice, but should have done it once actually.

Good weekend.

Mwalie

Well, thank you.someone finally responded!! :-)

I will definitely go over the Windows networking part but how about those
other topics that I mentioned.Are they going to be asked at all?

I do not see these topics listed under the exam topics on CCO.

When did you take your exam? Things might have changed but I am not sure.

Please advise.

Thank you.

CN

if it's any help, the CCDP recert exam pretty much followed right along the
published exam topics. I don't recall being surprised by anything I saw.

As for the CID itself, I took the 3.0 exam several years ago and the only
real gripe I had about it was the stratecom stuff, which was not included in
the course materials. It took me two tries to pass, but mainly because I
didn't treat the LAN protocols seriously the first time through. If recent
experience is worth anything, the published exam topics are probably the
best place to start.

For both my CCNP and CCDP recerts, I found that a couple of years of reading
and hands on as part of CCIE Lab prep were all that was necessary ;->

Hi Cisco Nuts,

IPX 
> AppleTalk 
> Windows Networking 
> SNA 
> X.25 
> Stratacom Switches 

The topics I didn't see in Exam (12/2002)were SNA and Stratacom Switches.

Regards,

Thanks so much for the info. It's amazing what Cisco says will be valid
topics for the exam and what exactly comes in the real exam!! I wonder
why Cisco does not even mention the topics in their web-site. So I gather
that IPX, AT, Windows, X.25 will be covered in the exam?

2003-07-19 Thread Cisco Nuts
Chuck,

Thanks for the useful info.

Question for you: Why does Cisco does this? Is it just to screw us,
seriously? :->

If you have checked out Cisco's web site for the CCDP exam topics, IPX,
AT, Windows Networking, X.25, SNA and Stratacom switches are NOT
mentioned at all. But someone else who took the same exam on 12/2002 just
pointed out that everything else but SNA and Stratacom switches were
covered on the exam.

I wonder if Cisco just published a new exam topics on their web-site.

They do mention HSRP, IRB, Spanning-Tree, Vlans, BPDU's etc. etc which I
don't see being covered in the CID book.??

I am confused!! All I am using in the CID book by M. Birkerner. I wonder
if this will suffice.

Sincerely.

Cisconuts,

"But someone else who took the same exam on 12/2002 just 
pointed out that everything else but SNA and Stratacom switches were 
covered on the exam."

Sorry for my English, second language!
I did not mean to scare you that I got other topics. What I really mean is:
As the Cisco guideline for 640-025 does not mention the topics, I didnot get
SNA, Stratacom.

And, since I took the exam longer than half year ago, I do not remember
exactly so I can tell you I didnot get hit by IPX,
AT, Windows Networking, X.25 neither.
I would say: no!
In my memory about that exam:
I like this Exam better than 640-441. Even it was a long exam, the questions
were straighforward and topics mostly fitted as posted in guideline.

Goodluck,
