CCNA prep

Folks,

My CCNA expired so I have to do it again. I thought I would try the single exam thing, that's the 840-842 right? Does anyone know how long it is please and if you have to do the CCENT stuff first?

I have the Boson and I just bought Lammle's book off Amazon. It has a lighthouse instead of his shiney head these days. Do you reckon the two combined should cover the **** stuff I will need to know for the test?

Cheers

Uh, for you the ExamCram for the CCENT would probably cover it

I am using the Odom book and it's excellent. I actually think I will be ready for the test after I finish reading it.

The CCENT is 640-822

You don't have to do the CCENT first; you can do the single exam route.

Dude, I'm pretty sure your CCIE studies have you covered

Maybe pick up Transcender or something and see if there's anything obscure that you've somehow missed.

Okay, maybe I am confused but I figured that your CCIE written would have covered the CCNA. Am I lost or something?

Gotcha...

You can actually go right to the CCIE if you're able. It's not like the CCNP where you need the CCNA as a prerequisite, etc.
