What to suspect in TSHOOT

Hi everyone. I recently passed my ROUTE exam (2/11 860/1000, after my 4th try) and my SWITCH exam (5/11 792/1000, after my 2nd time). Any tips on the TSHOOT exam? Sounds like it is a lot more scenarios nstead of other questions. Am right?

Thanks.

PS: I'm finding the TSHOOT book from Cisco interesting. A lot of pearls of wisdom in there.

Make sure your familiar with the topics in both Route and Switch, know what the proper configuration is. In TSHOOT it's broke or mis-configured you'll need to know where to look at and what to look for.

Best of luck to you, 1 more exam and your CCNP.

Make sure you practice setting up the TShoot network topology! It's available from cisco. Many people are saying that the Tshoot book isn't necessary or even very relevant to the Tshoot exam.

If you know how to go up the stack you will be able to figure out the majority of the problems. If you are an experienced NOC engineer you will find this insanely easy.

Don't underestimate this test. I think its one of the toughest test that I took.
I was pressured as soon as the clock start running. You have to be VERY knowledgeable in the config to be able to figure it out. Experience is the key.

i found this test to be quite easy (but one of the more enjoyable exam experiences) especially with being able to look at the topology off of cisco's site ahead of time. just brush up on the topics from route and switch that are relevant to the topology and you should be fine.

yeah it was easy for you I remember you say your score it was 1000,, well i gotta 982 and I thought it was hard. But your correct it was very exciting!

being able to compare configs between different tickets made it almost too easy in my opinion especially after making it through route and switch already which were grueling.

The way I got through it was to create the whole network in Dynamips/GNS3. Save a base network config and build it up. I got to the point where I could build the whole Layer 2, Layer 3 and IPv6 network without even looking at the diagram for IP addresses. This will give you heaps of confidence on the actual TShoot topology being tested and a sense of familiarity that will really help in troubleshooting the tickets.

my 2 cents

Thanks everyone. I had the exam yesterday, and passed (890).
