ONT test

romainromain Member Posts: 222
Hello all,

I just passed the ONT test last friday. This test ends my CCNP quest started in january 2007.
I'd like to thank this forum for all nice topics and sorry to be a bit too passive member.
To fix this, here is my feedback about the exam.
First, my global opinion about this cert, is quite easy. I'm working for an ISP and QoS is a daily concern. This part was quite simple for me although we never configure devices with AutoQos. We cannot afford such a risk... But it's good to know the features and mechanism.
Second part, Wireless. It is still a weak area for me. I'm not used to deploy and workwith. But I focussed on theoritical aspect. If you know much about it, it's all sufficient.
I'll post some links I used during my preparing in a few time. (Just the time to tidy my bookmarks ;))
See you and enjoy your studies

    Thanks Mike.

    It took me "a long time" because I prepare my tests on weekends and I have to mix this with a social life :)

    In fact, during these two years, I passed my professional levels (ccdp,ccip and ccnp). Which is a good challenge, isn't it ?

    See you!

    Congratulations, not only on passing the ONT, but on all your accomplishments this year! :D
    Good luck on the CCIE written, too. Does that mean we might see you head towards the lab sometime next year?

    thanks Slowhand.

    I hope I can book an attempt by end 2009, maybe oct/nov.
    I'm lucky to have a full rack to prepare at work so I think it could be done within a year.
    Let's see ;)

    WOW... NP, DP, and IP, in under two years. I gotta pick up the pace. Nicely done bro.

    And yeah, throw up the links you used... that would be great.

    Here it is ;)

    It's not an exhaustive list, but just a few things to know as everyone as a different technical background.
