Passed the QoS exam

Took the QoS 642-642 today, passed with 857 (passing score was 790). Not the greatest score but I'll take it for sure.


IP QoS Fundamentals: 71%
IP QoS Components: 86%
Modular QoS CLI and Auto-QoS: 100%
Classification and Marking: 67%
Congestion Management Methods: 25% whatever
Congestion Avoidance Methods: 100%
Traffic Policing and Shaping: 86%
Link Efficiency Mechanisms: 100%
QoS Best Practices: 0% haha fail


With QoS out of the way, bring on the MPLS+BGP Composite. I wanna get it out of the way by the end of the year, but I'll have to put in a lot of work to meet that goal.

Time to party

    No longer work in IT. Play around with stuff sometimes still and fix stuff for friends and relatives.

    Good work, well done.

    What study materials did you use? Once I hopefully get BGP out of the way towards the end of this month/beginning of next I have QOS left to complete the IP.

    jas I used Cisco QoS second edition by Odom. What are you using for BGP?
  • j4sj4s Member Posts: 18 ■□□□□□□□□□
    The Odom book seems to be the one most people use for this QOS exam, so that's on the wishlist at Amazon.

    For BGP I have Internet Routing Architectures by Luc De Ghein, it's a good book, easy to read, and the configuration examples in Chapters 11/12 are really useful. I also have a GNS lab setup so I can put configs together and see how they look.

    Ask yourself: "What would I do?"

    Then do the opposite!

    J/K :)

    I assume you took the ONT, did you read the Odom cover to cover or did you find you could basically flip through it?
    Itchy... Tasty!
