Passed ICND1

Today I passed ICND1 with a 916. Exam was not too bad and I'm looking forward to ICND2. I studied for about two months using the resources below.

CCENT Study Guide by Todd Lammle (excellent)
CCENT Study Guide by Wendell Odom (excellent)
CBT videos by Jeremy Ciora (excellent)
CCNA bundle by David Bombal (good for remembering commands)

As everyone said you must know subnetting. Make sure you are familiar with the show commands and definitely pay attention to the frame relay section in you study guide.

Any suggestions for ICND2?

. . .Any suggestions for ICND2?

Yeah. . . don't take it lightly!

Even though there may appear to be fewer topics on the ICND2, they will be covered in MUCH more depth.

Be sure you know things like ACLs, EIGRP, OSPF, switching. . . Get as much hands-on time as you can with equipment/simulators/racks, but also try to get a good grasp of terminology/theory.

If you have prior networking background, the CCENT may have been a breeze. Don't rely too much on that success-- the CCENT is a good foundation, but it's just that. . . a foundation. Be really ready to dive in deep for the next phase.

(Saying all this as I prep for ICND2 labs this week myself.)

Congratulations eunicke, my only advice is to try ur best not to forget, ull and we'll, always refresh the foundation, CCENT, the better ur foundation stone, the better and the stronger ur building... Informations in IT is really too volatile and fly easy.

But, come back to the light side, we have milk!

I'm in the same thing. I'm going to pass my 70-291 and then focus on my Cisco CCNA (2 test) and Security+ certs.

Congrats on the pass!
