CCENT Down

kingholmes · August 2013

I don't post often, but I am on here daily reading other posts. This place has helped me greatly. I do not do networking work daily at work so that wasn't much help. I used Odom's ICND1 book and subnettingquestions.com. I think I have probably answered 500 of the questions on that site. I would just do a few every hour during the work day. Work also bought me the Boson Netsim and Examsim. I think they were very helpful as well. My score was 925/1000. I have been studying off and on since around March. Actually had the test scheduled for this upcoming Friday but pushed it up just to get it done. Was driving me crazy.

Here is my breakdown.

Describe the operation of data network 100%
Implement a small switched network 86%
Implement an IP addressing scheme and IP services to meet network requirements for a small branch office 92%
Implement a small routed network 79%
Explain and select the appropriate administrative tasks required for a WLAN 100%
Identify security threats to a network and describe general methods to mitigate those threats 100%

I was feeling good for a while. Then I started looking at ICND2 and felt not so good. Starting that tomorrow. Work paid for 640-816 so I need to get it done by Sept. 30. Couple beers tonight and then back to it. Thanks for all your help.
