ICND2 Pass!

I passed the ICND2 yesterday with an 867. Not as high as I would've liked, but I'm glad to have my CCNA!
I started studying for ICND2 in early Feb, a couple days after passing the ICND1. I went through the CBT Nuggets 200-101 series and then read Odom's book. After that, I took a practice test and then re-watched videos for the stuff I felt shaky about. I had pretty good scores in every category except for WAN Technologies. Some of the frame-relay subject matter really put me to sleep.

My recommendation to anyone taking this soon is to be as comfortable as possible with RSTP and OSPF. They threw a ton of that stuff at me.

I'm going to take a break for a while, because I feel like I've been a semi-absent husband and father since the fall when I started studying for ICND1. When I feel good and ready, I'm going to start studying for CCNA Security.

Why CCNA Security next? Are you already working in the field?

A pass is a pass in my book congratulation! I believe every time you pass a CCNA exam, it renews your original. So technically you can take a new exam every year and renew your original one.

I'm a network technician in a decently large enterprise where we work closely with the security team. A bunch of things have happened recently, and I will need to step up my game in every way possible. I have an interest in security, and I figured it would be helpful in my position. I'll eventually go for NP R&S, but I'm in no hurry for that.
