It had EIGRP, OSPF (single and multiple areas), BGP, IP addressing,
optimization, and scalability questions.  For more detail see:

Hi All,

Has anyone taken this exam lately, if so, what topics were targeted a lot.
Did you have to type the cmd a lot or was it more multiple choice. I hope
this doesn't break the NDA...

Cheers!

I just took it last weekend.  Like John Allhiser says a lot of EIGRP, OSPF,
BGP  IP address summarization.  Not much typing of commands but mostly
picking the right command from a list of 60 to 70 commands in an exhibit.

I used the Cisco Press and ExamCram books.  Generally the Cisco Press Exam
Certification Guide series do a very good job of addressing test objectives.

Good luck.

-Serge.

2002-01-21 Thread Mnatzakanian Serge

I just passed it this weekend.  My trick was to REALLY know EIGRP and OSPF
since I am most likely to use those in my clients' networks, but then learn
just enough BGP so I could at least eliminate one or two of the answers...

Hopefull the 3rd time will be a charm!  Good luck.

 Hai,
 
 Just take the BSCN Exam for the second time, sadly still fail. 
 Lots off BGP, EIGRP and OSPF.  Spend 60% of the time just to
 figure out BGP
 questions. Heck BSCN is bit tough than I think it was.
 
 Thanks

Try getting the Boson  exams for the BSCN and do better than 90 percent, 
plus read the
exam cram for the BSCN before you take the test.

Good luck.

I would study Scalable Cisco Networks..
I would also have started by looking at the

Janto,

Sorry I didn't get to read your email til just now. Here's a link to a
good pdf file. It might be helpful to print it up, get to the test site
15-20 minutes early and go thru this cram-doc right before the test.

ISDN and DDR are now on the BCRAN test (in addition to some on the CCNA
test). Bridging, at least transparent bridging, is covered a little on the
BCMSN test - particularly in regards to spanning tree.

BTW, you may have already heard this, but be sure to get some supplementary
BGP info prior to tackling BSCN.

 Passed Routing 2.0 today, thanks in part to info I got from the
 questions on this site.
 
 If your prepping for this; know BGP and EIGRP theory  focus on the
 syntax of the set and show commands. You need to know the command syntax
 and also the console prompt it should be entered from. You should also
 be familiar with interpreting the effects of such commands when
 presented with a few lines of config
 
 Good luck.

Re: BSCN exam

2000-07-20 Thread Edward Solomon

 Does anyone have some more detailed information about the BSCN exam?
 it seems to be really different from that ACRC exam but how much?

 What are the number of question, passing score, are there lots of fill in
 questions, what do it focuse on ?

The passing score is 690 and you have 61 questions, if I remember correctly.
They are all multiple choice. You do not have to type in commands any more,
as in the ACRC test. The exam focuses on VLSM, CIDR, OSPF (single and
multi-area), E-IGRP, BGP (internal and external, plus scalability features),
route redistribution and policy-based routing.

Be familiar with the theory and configuration commands for the above topics
as they are guaranteed to turn up on the test. Know OSPF, E-IGRP and BGP
route summarisation, know how these protocols function (in detail) and make
sure that you are quite familiar with their algorithms and how they
calculate network reachability. Know BGP *thoroughly*. There are many
questions about it and you need to know how it works in great depth. Know
all the path attributes and the ways in which BGP routers communicate with
one another.

I can't stress all this enough. The exam is substantially different from
ACRC. You have to know all about how these scalable routing protocols work,
as well as how distance vector protocols function. There are the odd few
questions about those, too. BGP is probably the most significant difference
between the Routing 2.0 exam and the old ACRC test.
