Hello everyone. Starting to prepare for CCNP

Hello everyone,

I am starting to gather my thoughts on how is the best way to prepare for the CCNP. The only real thing I noticed, is that you don't really have to take the exams in any particular order. From my research on these boards, it looks like the BSCI is the exam that helps build a good foundation for the other exams. Is this really true? Is there another order someone would recommend?

Thanks for any insight.

    Suggested flow according to Cisco:
    BSCI:
    - CCNA
    - Existing content: EIGRP, OSPF, ISIS
    - New content: Manipulating routing and packet flow , BGP, Multicast, IPv6
    BCMSN:
    - CCNA
    - Existing Content: Spanning Tree, VLANs, Inter-Vlan Routing
    - New content: High Availability, Wireless LANs, VoIP, Switch Security
    ISCW:
    - CCNA, BSCI
    - 80% new content: New technologies (Security, DSL, MPLS)
    ONT:
    - CCNA, BSCI, BCMSN, ISCW
    - 80% new content: New technologies (VoIP, QoS, Wireless LANs)

    I’m starting with BCMSN cause I got more switching experience. Next I will take BSCI …

    Grtz
