350-001 CCIE Routing - Study Tips

CCIE Routing and Switching Written Exam 350-001 is a two-hour, multiple choice test with 100 questions covering Routing and Switching networking theory related to topics such as IP, IP routing, non-IP desktop protocols, bridging and switch-related technologies, and includes some equipment commands. The exam is closed book and no outside reference materials are allowed.

People commonly complete the CCNP exams before beginning to study for the CCIE Written. This is not a requirement, but rather the common path to follow, and it does help to prepare you for many of the topics covered. However, if you think the written is just an extension of the CCNP process, you're wrong. The Written exam encompasses the totality of routing and switching with Cisco equipment. You'll have two hours of being hammered with questions that can cover almost anything that can be done on Cisco networking equipment.

I've compiled a list of study suggestions that you might find useful:

• Print out a copy of the exam blueprint from the Cisco website. Use this as the basis of your notes, and don't consider yourself ready for the exam until you are completely comfortable with ALL the topics on the list. The blueprint changes occasionally, but the current version can be found at: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/625/ccie/certifications/rsblueprint.html


• Develop a set of CCO (Cisco Connection Online) links associated with any of the technologies from the blueprint that are not familiar.


• Buy a few books. This seems simple enough, but I've found there are two types of books lists for the CCIE?-?those for the lab and those for the written. They're not the same. For our purposes here, there are two things we want to accomplish with our reading: to quickly get the written out of the way to start the long road to the lab; and to try as much as possible to conserve money and time by finding and reading materials that are applicable to both.
