Took the MPLS exam and flunked [7:47830]

2002-07-01 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi Group,

Today I took the MPLS exam and I flunked.I used the book MPLS and VPN
architecture(First edition) by Ivan Pepelnjak.From my experience this book
is not sufficient to prepare for the exam.About the exam it is not too
toughf, if proper material would have been there.
The passing mark is also too high,it is 867.I scored 798..
If any knows some good links for preparing for the exam.Pls suggest.

Kind Regards /Thangavel

This is a question, not a criticism -- I'm trying to get a sense of 
preparation. To what extent did you read the MPLS RFCs?

Hello,

I have read the RFC 2547 and 2917 and understood the MPLS VPN architecture
from it.What I experienced is just if I know the RFC alone is not
sufficient.
To pass the cisco mpls exam I should know in a cisco centric way.I feel
there are certain things in the exam which can be answered if I would have
had the Cisco's official curriculum.

I passed that one a few months ago.  It was quite challenging, but if your
on your way to CCIP you've probably already taken MCAST/QoS which is another
tough test.

To prepare I used "MPLS and VPN architectures" by Ivan Pepelnjak and also
"Advanced MPLS Design and Implementation" by Vivek Alwayn.  The second book
was much more pertinent to the test and I believe is being revised for test,
but check ciscopress.com for that.

 I have had a bit of MPLS experience, but I'm not a huge fan of L3 VPNs/vrf
stuff.  I also did a few labs.

BTW, I'm currently doing beta testing with some of cisco's new AToM
features, their implementation of the draft-martini stuff.  Anyway the
Ethernet over MPLS and ATM over MPLS stuff is working great and seems like
it will be a great thing for us service providers.

Good luck on test, let me know if you have other questions.  As hard as the
MPLS test was, the optical test was WAY harder, so if your gonna do that
one...beware :)

Mike

There's a new edition of the Pepelnjak book advertised on the
ciscopress.com website: "MPLS and VPN Architectures, CCIP Edition".
How does it differ from the original? I hope I won't have to buy the
CCIP Edition, but if it's a significant boost in preparing for the
MPLS exam, I'll do it.

The best preparation for this exam is the Cisco training material for
Implementing Cisco MPLS (v1.0)...it was 3 volumes and nothing in the exam
was outside the material.
