642-902 ROUTE Exam Topics

Exam Description
The Implementing Cisco IP Routing (ROUTE 642-902) is a qualifying exam for the Cisco Certified Network Professional CCNP®, Cisco Certified Internetwork Professional CCIP®, and Cisco Certified Design Professional CCDP® certifications. The ROUTE 642-902 exam will certify that the successful candidate has the knowledge and skills necessary to use advanced IP addressing and routing in implementing scalable and secure Cisco ISR routers connected to LANs and WANs. The exam also covers configuration of secure routing solutions to support branch offices and mobile workers.

IS-IS is gone for now (can I use is three times in a sentence?) from the CCNP track



It still wouldn't hurt you to know the basics, but for now you won't be tested on it.

Xishan anwar

thank you

jovan88

no idea why they got rid of is-is, fair enough its more for ISPs, but ROUTE is also used for CCIP

Ryan82

Yeah, I'm glad that the old CCNP track had it because it exposed me to the basics of it. Funny enough I was certain that I would never see it in a production environment, well fast forward to today working at an ISP and as you guessed, we use it heavily.

I think they should revise the route exam in the CCIP track to include ISIS.

Heero

I took the BSCI shortly before it turned into the route. Kinda makes me sad they removed IS-IS. I thought it was a very well-crafted routing protocol.

Ryan82

Agreed. I hated it at first but realized that it was because the BSCI self study guide did a horrible job explaining it. Routing TCP/IP vol.1 presented it much more clearly.

Actually in reference to ISIS, today I noticed that on juniper devices they have L3 adjacencies which is the same as a L1/L2 in the Cisco world.

They probably had to remove something - The amount of IPv6 you need to learn for ROUTE looks to be the tradeoff. I forget, did the BCSI include any IPv6 in the track?

Ryan82

Yes it did. They also asked about ospfv3 and eigrp for ipv6 if I remember correctly. It wasn't too extensive though.

stuh84

There was no EIGRP for IPv6 in the BSCI, only OSPFv3 and static routing.

Ryan82

Ah okay. I was thinking there was but I probably got confused because I took the BSCI and BCMSN from the old track and the TSHOOT from the new track, which required me to study up on the eigrp ipv6.

stuh84

Yeah I did the same, I'd learnt most of the IPv6 stuff away from it though anyway (partly due to teaching it to some people at work, and partly cos I like it)
