Passed VPN 642-648 Today!

Took VPN today and scored 958.

The exam was fair and straight forward.

Used CBT Nuggets with my buddy Keith Barker, Cisco Press book, real world experience, labs and labs, Cisco.com and google.com

Felt the OCG was well written and provides all the info you need to pass the test. I wanted to get this test done before the deadline of April 21st. I'm halfway there. Need to do IPS and SECURE. I don't think I will have enough time to complete at least one of them. I know SECURE is a bull. I might just try and see what I can do with IPS before the deadline.

Anyway, good luck to anyone that is planning on taking this test soon. It's not that bad if you study and lab.

Congrats! If I were you I would wait and study for and take the 300-208 SISAS. The material is more focused looks like and you cannot go wrong in learning and labbing ISE/TrustSec.

Also, the old IPS exam would be another I would be grateful to skip and study and take the 300-207 SITCS. Once again, the material appears to be much better and more real world. A lot of people find/found it hard to lab for the IPS exam because who can rack a 4240 in their home lab (luckily, I did)? The big thing you should be anxious about the 300-207 exam is the NGFW stuff. Cisco IPS is really not a huge market and I have yet to really run into any environment that was fully invested in it so it's good that they added NGFW and not IPS 4240 v7.0

Go ahead and read through the SECURE material, the dot1x, DMVPN materials are good and very real world.
