Topics *NOT* Covered on 640-802 ??

Genphlux

Hi guys, this is my first post so I'll try to make it reasonably intelligible. I have skimmed over a lot of the various threads in this forum and I haven't found exactly what I'm looking for, but I apologize ahead of time if this is a duplicate post.

It is my understanding (unconfirmed, which is why I'm here), that there are certain topics that are no longer on the CCNA exam, such as ISDN or Class A/B Subnetting (You'll only have to subnet Class C). I don't know for sure how true that is, or what other topics/protocols are not on the exam.

A lot of the study material that I have it rather old, so I'm trying to work with what I've got. I just hate to cram an bunch of dated or unnecessary information into my mind when I could use those brain cells for relevant information.

I hope that makes sense.... Thanks!

ISDN is no longer a listed objective. If you can subnet a class C, class A and B are the same thing, just bigger numbers

Is the 640-801 that much different to the 640-802

Should I study for CCNA using 640-801 material or not

You'd want to make sure that you do cover all the topics in the 640-802 CCNA Exam Blueprint, including the new stuff like SDM and anything else your old material doesn't cover.

10,000 Stand Up Comedians out of work -- that must be why you want to study Cisco

Anyway -- depending on how old your material is -- IPX and Token Ring aren't on the exam anymore.
