Failed 642-811 with 618

Not having alot of hands on experience killed me. Screen shots and simulations were tough for me. Maybe I will try again when I can get my hands on some switches and routers.

I definetly advise studying multicasting, QoS and having some hands-on experience to pass this one. I took the CCNA and passed it with flying colors.

You're right the CCNP is not a walk in the park. Good luck next time.

Cheers,

Just curious, did you have access to a simulator, like routersim or boson ?

I assume you must have, it's probably a silly question, but I had to ask.

The switching test was the hardest test in the CCNP track, for me. I would recommend that you get some hands on time with a CCNP level rack. If you do not have one available to you at work, check out racks available online. Good luck.
