Certification Exam Student Feedback

Mike I wanted to let you know, I passed the CCNA 640-802 test today, with a 934/1000 (it would have been higher, but see the commentary below) Lessons Learned You can NEVER go back, if you skip a question, it's wrong. Passing Grade is 825/1000 Simulations are worth around 50 points ( I know this because I skipped it, and realized too late, DOH!) Read a question fully, if it says select 3, and you choose 2, it will not warn you on some questions. Know your routing, and routing behaviour, there will be some tricky ones on the test for sure Things that will be on the Exam. STP, Access-Lists, and EIGRP Know your command-line Tab does not finish commands on the test, ? still works You must have the know how to use command line to get the answers you need ie, show vtp status to get the ip of the vtp server, and use show cdp neighbor detail to get its name Do your packet tracer labs, or don't bother with the exam, there are many of "How do we solve this questions" Mike I just thought you should know I found the test easy, but it was the hard work on my end, and your mentoring that lead to the easy test. One suggestion ok, maybe two, make sure you go over STP and drive home the Root Bridge Election portion more, Access-lists we need more time to work on those, they are linked to so many things. Overall, I feel the Cisco coarse was the highlight of the ITP program for me personally because of my IT background, especially the WAN section, that shined a light into dark area's of my experience.

Class Ground Rules

Each class is considered a business meeting that starts at 8:30am sharp If you cant be in class please let instructor know asap No emailing, IMing, or gaming during lectures please No leaving class until your work is complete or the Instructor ends the day. Lab completion must be demonstrated to Instructor Dress code is business casual (accept jean Fridays) Mens business casual Womens business casual Food & drinks allowed if cleaned up immediately Workstations have clean desk policy at end of day Try to use Millennium Days to write Certifications This course will focus on researching information more than memorizing
CCNA1-6 Chapter 1

Test/Exam Rules
No talking No texting No Instant Messaging No emailing Only Cisco exam Window allowed open on your PC Only Instructor provided hard copy reference materials are allowed 1 two minute bathroom break is allowed

Cheating 1st offense gets you a 0 on the test/exam Cheating 2nd offense gets you a 0 on the course Cheating 3rd offense hets you removed from the College
CCNA1-7 Chapter 1

Gradebook Weightings

A pass is 70%. You must pass the exam (70%) to pass the course module. Each module is a prerequisite to the next module. You must prove to Instructor/TA a lab in complete to get credit.
CCNA1-8 Chapter 1

Best Practices
Complete all work during class time Work in small teams to complete labs & assessments Dont cheat yourself by copying assessment/exam answers For best understanding read the Cisco Academy chapter Try to relate networking to a post office. They are similar. Use FireFox, as IE has some problems with Cisco website This course will focus on researching information more than memorizing

Typical Student Challenges

If Internet Explorer doesnt work try FireFox Subnetting (see reference sheet) Acronyms knowing them & what they mean (see http://acronymsonline.com/Default.asp) Command Line Interface (CLI Command Reference.pdf) Wrong cabling (straight thru vs cross-over) Workload Time Management

Networks The Early Days

Early communication relied on face-to-face conversations. The telephone was used for voice and the post office delivered most of the written communications. Video communication was one-way using the television.
CCNA1-18 Chapter 1

Networks The Early Days

Early networks were limited to character based information. Communications between computers was not easy and required a host (no pun intended) of resources to accomplish the simplest data transfer.

CCNA1-30 Chapter 1

Communications What is it?

Communications can take many forms and occurs in many different environments. We establish rules, or protocols, for communicating with each other: Identify the sender and receiver. Agree on the method. Common language. Speed and delivery of the message. Confirmation that the message was received. Communications between individuals is successful if the meaning of the received message is the same as the meaning of the message that was sent.
CCNA1-31 Chapter 1

Communications - Quality
For data networks, we use the same basic criteria to judge successful communication. However, there are external factors that can affect the message. The quality of the pathway between the sender and the recipient. The number of times the message has to change form or be redirected or re-addressed. The number of other messages being transmitted simultaneously on the communication network. The amount of time allotted for successful communication.

It is also more difficult to deliver a large, bulky package successfully and without damage than it is to deliver several smaller packages.

CCNA1-34

Chapter 1

Network As A Platform
All networks have 4 basic elements in common:

Rules (protocols) to govern the handling of the message. Messages that travel from one device to another.

Medium that is used to interconnect devices and can transport the messages from one device to another.
Devices on the network that exchange messages.
CCNA1-35 Chapter 1

Network As A Platform
Rules on a network seem almost endless but theyre not.

The Architecture of the Internet

The term Network Architecture defines Technologies that support the infrastructure Programmed services and protocols that move the messages across that infrastructure. There are 4 basic characteristics for networks in general to meet user expectations: Fault tolerance Scalability Quality of Service (QoS) Security

Fault Tolerance

CCNA1-49

Chapter 1

The Architecture of the Internet

Fault Tolerance: The Internet, in its early inception, was the result of research funded by the United States Department of Defense (DoD).

Fault tolerance was the focus of the initial internetwork design.

Early network researchers looked at the existing communication networks, which were primarily for the transmission of voice traffic, to determine what could be done to improve the fault tolerance level.

Scalability

CCNA1-54

The Architecture of the Internet

A good example of scalability is the Tier architecture of the Internet. Tier 1: ISPs provide national for Tier 2: Pay Tier 1 providers and connectivity and provide international connections. Tier 3: Provide service to end (Verizon, are usually NTT, regional service. users andSprint, AT&T,connected cable systems, etc.) through Tier 2 providers.

A Shift in Attitude
The following Old school IT thinking doesnt work any more. We dont support PCs or Apples. We cant allow that application on our network. We cant give them access on our network. We have too much to do already. We dont support that. You dont know about networks, so we cant do that. That would breach our security

Technical and Soft Skills

Networking professionals need more knowledge and skills today than ever before. Tomorrows IT professionals will need even more skills. Just as important, and sometimes even more important, are the soft skills: Attitude Enthusiasm Communications skills Professionalism and Ethics
