ICND1/2 questions

in CCNA & CCENT
I've been going through CBT videos, and started reading my books to take my first CCENT. Been pushing along over the last 4 days or so and i'm noticing there is not much IOS stuff. Am I wrong in this thought, as most of this all seems like a refresher on the Network+/Microsoft tests. Is the ICND2 where it starts to add the most of IOS?

    You will come across quite a bit of IOS material studying for the ICND1. I am a couple weeks away from my first attempt at the CCENT exam and I have spent a considerable amount of time labing on cisco equipment. I'd imagine there will be quite a bit more hands on while preparing for the ICND2 however

    Awesome - I look forward to the challenge. I just feel like so far - up to this point - it has been a lot of subnetting, ports, and OSI Model. I should be getting my lab equip from ebay tomorrow. We shall see how that goes.

    Are you going through the ICND1 + ICND2 CBTNuggets or the CCNA Nuggets? If your studying for the ICND1 make sure your watching the ICND1 Nugget... There is a fair bit of IOS in that video collection.

    Yes. Those are what I am going through. I'm on about 10th video, still in common ports and OSI model. Should have time tomorrow to go through quite a bit more of the videos. I just wasn't sure what I was seeing with all of the basic stuff.

    Before you can become a master of the IOS you need to learn the theory behind networking and ICND1 does this. As you go deeper into it you'll learn some IOS stuff along the way but it does get more involved in ICND2

    Good luck with your studies.
    I'm an Xpert at nothing apart from remembering useless information that nobody else cares about.

    Thanks a bunch for the support! I am currently just going through the review. I figure what can it hurt other than solidifying it even more.

    ICND1 will cover IOS for sure but as mentioned before, ICND1 is all about the foundation of networking. OSI, Routing Protocols (RIP and RIPv2), IOS commands

    You'll see more and more as you go along.
    Modularity and Design Simplicity:

    Think of the 2:00 a.m. test—if you were awakened in the
    middle of the night because of a network problem and had to figure out the
    traffic flows in your network while you were half asleep, could you do it?
