Is there any rule months that if you fail ccna exam once.You are not eligible to write for next three months.

IIRC, there's a 5-day waiting period if you fail, but something like 3 months before you can retake if you pass.

5 days after a fail
180 days after a pass

The above posters are correct (scroll to the bottom of the page): Certification Exam Policies - IT Certification and Career Paths - Cisco Systems

The cisco website says as such:

• Once passed, a candidate must wait a minimum of 180 days before taking the same exam with an identical exam number.

Suppose i want to give ccnp if i pass ccna....should there be any time gap

Did you see the line right next to it ?

• Candidates who fail an exam must wait a period of five (5) calendar days, beginning the day after the failed attempt, before they may retest for the same exam.

I think in the past, or maybe its a different company policy, that if you fail a second time there is a long wait. The policy does not seem to exist at this time though.

I go way back with Cisco. I don't believe there's ever been a months-long wait upon fail for the CCNA or CCNP.

@MiikeB - as both you and NetworkVeteran said, it's not a Cisco policy, it's the policy of that other company that shall remain nameless: Nameless Company that is Tiny and Squishy (found under the Security Policies tab).
