Started to pursue CCIP.

Folks. I have a question for you? I am working towards going for the R/S as you all know from my intro a while back. I have been working on bgp since i feel that not only is it one of my weakpoints but a major part of the lab itself. While doing so i have had this brainstorm that i should make attempts at the CCIP certification. I was on cisco,s site earlier this morning & i found some conflicting information. Someone had posted in their forum that you have to pass 642-901 BSCI before taking the rest. MY cisco profile shows 642-901 BSCI marked with a ** indicating that information is probably old & that the only requirement from what i comprehend is CCNA which i already possess.

So not to bore anyone, but could someone confirm or deny whether i need to take the 642-901 BSCI 1st? Or can i just go for the 642-661 BGP which i feel i that i am about halfway close to taking?

You can take any Cisco exam you like in whatever order you like. Cisco has a very nice website which contains all the information you need about certificates.So who do you believe a random punter on a cisco forum or cisco themselves? I'll leave that to you.

Hello,

If you have any doubt on the exams you need to take, you can check the Certification Progress tab on your Cisco Tracking website.

Cheers.
