Hello everybody,

In previous post I was informed that in the past BSCI and prontifiquei me to detail a little more of the day I had to get this certification.

First, the BSCI was my result:

Note: 911 / 1000

Trim: 790

Questions: 61

Time: 2 hours.

Scorecard:

• Implement EIGRP operations: 88%
• Implement multiarea OSPF operations: 80%
• Describe Integrated IS-IS: 85%
• Implement Cisco IOS routing features: 100%
• Implement BGP for enterprise ISP connectivity: 90%
• Implement multicast forwarding: 100%
• Implement IPv6: 62%

Confirm what many say, the BSCI is difficult! Ensures that all my preparation was not so good, would not in evidence. Unlike the CCNA, the BSCI has more questions that makes you think. In my test fell all content studied. Do not remember anything that did not fall.

The laboratories that fell in my test were:

• Troubleshooting a configuration of Virtual Link in OSPFv3;
• Bidirectional redistribution of IS-IS and EIGRP;
• Other than I remember …

The issues were the most diverse, so the rebound all:

Study and learn, because if you do not this (and try your luck for braindumps) may not be optimal and not pass the professional certification, as this evidence, especially, is Hardcore!

Each second of my journey of study paid off, because all I added knowledge. Now, talk a little as my preparation.

For the BSCI, I had not done any study plan - something that will do for BCMSN to optimize the time - but my study was to 24/03/2009 (the day after the approval of CCNA) until 30/05/2009 (2 days before being approved in BSCI) and followed by:

1. I watched all the videos from CBT Nuggets by Jeremy Cioara (available in HD Blog).
2. I made an overview of the book’s official CiscoPress by Brent Stewart (available in HD Blog).
3. I started trying to practice some laboratories, but saw that something was missing.
4. Li detail throughout the book of Brent Stewart, during the reading was practicing laboratories for each of the chapters that happening.
5. After completion of the book, began my long journey in laboratories. Laboratories of all that I fell in BSCI, often mixing 2 or 3 areas of expertise to observe the convergence of protocols together.
6. Began to address issues of simulated to identify my weaknesses.
7. Identified these weaknesses, reread the chapter of the book, practicing with laboratories and when this issue was fairly safe as the content did a simuladão of this whole field.
8. I was alternating between steps 6,7,8 until 1 week before the day of examination.
9. Relax this last week, as was the feeling I could have done a week earlier. But that was not reviewed the 100% secure (Multicast) and 2 days before the test found a text named BSCI QuickSheat that was quite interesting to see the entire contents of the evidence as a general overview.
10. One day before the test, relax and not seen anything of the content or annotations.

Extra Tips: Always keep a TXT annotations! When you have a question put it in TXT. When you have an information that is new to you write it in TXT. Thus, you have compiled a file of information and can track all your progress, and if the development of your study you have a question that relates to what you studied, you have noted in TXT.

Personnel, per hour is this. I hope to have contributed a lot, and now towards BCMSN. This week will draw up a plan of studies and will publish on the blog for you to follow.

A strong hug and success to all of us.

Hello everybody,

It is with great pleasure that I wish to announce that today (01/jun/2009) at 09:00 in Passei BSCI (642-901), one of four tests that comprise the CCNP.

Since I am without a computer in my way, then do a more extended comment saying that crashed, which studied and general considerations on the evidence.

Next step, BCMSN (Building Converged Cisco Multilayer Switched Networks), 642-812.

A big hug and success to all of us,

Maurício Bento Ghem.

Towards the CCNP!

Hello Guys,

Who monitors the comments in the blog Marco Filippetti may have noticed that I said have marked the race BSCI. Now, I’m making it official:

Test scheduled for 1/junho/2009, 09:00.

I am improving my knowledge until now to feel more secure for their achievement. When I go I have studied 2 months and 1 week. If you follow this average by the end of the year will be possible to achieve my goal of getting the CCNP until December.

Many say that the BSCI is proof more difficult, and I still do not know hehehhe. But the content is a little complicated at first, but once you ‘get the morning’, examines the practices and laboratories you understand perfectly everything that was written in the books. Also, it is possible that by routing be my favorite area in the world of networking I learned with pleasure.

If the next 3 tests are interesting as the content of BSCI is a pleasure studying and learning, in order to obtain the CCNP and demonstrate knowledge sedimented.

Wish me calm and serenity to this day, as luck - I believe - is necessary only for those who are not prepared in its entirety.

Cheers,

Maurício Bento Ghem.

Olá Pessoal,

Após uma semana de indas e vindas foi concertado o problema que estava tendo com o website.

Além da resolução deste empecilho o site possui uma conexão mais parruda com a internet e mais recursos da parte da hospedagem.

Desculpe-me por não ter avisado, mas nem eu sabia da migração e da atualização dos servidores.

Ainda no fim-de-semana estarei postando muitos laboratórios CCNP incluindo: ISIS, BGP, Redistribution e outros.

Um grande abraço,

Maurício.

Olá Pessoal,

Primeiro gostaria de falar do compromisso que assumi. Esse compromisso é de que me tornaria a disposição para ajudar todos que tem o objetivo comum que, num âmbito mais superior, é crescer. Tenho o maior prazer em ajudar a todos seja da maneira que for, mas venho lhes dizer que por motivos educacionais fortes não estou conseguindo manter 100% um de meus objetivos que é o de atualizar o blog constantemente.

Quero vos falar que adoro escrever, mas devido a muitas atividades acadêmicas e dedicação ao estudo para a  CCNP meu tempo anda tomado. O bom disso, é que as atualizações feitas serão de maior qualidade pois serão bem mais pensadas.

Abro este espaço para todos que tem interesse em se ajudar e que gostam de escrever o bom e velho português para que conversem comigo para tornarem-se escritores do forum e poderem contribuir com material de mesmo nível que vocês estão acostumados a receber. Farei uma seleção para ver o real interesse e qualidade do material em geral que o moderador está disposto a contribuir com a comunidade.

Contato: mauricio [arroba] bentow.com.br

Entrem em contato!

Agradeço pelas sugestões que são enviadas para mim, e também, pelas dúvidas, pois tenho o maior prazer em respondê-las.

Um forte abraço,

Maurício.

Hello Guys,

To keep you informed of how my study is giving to the CCNP, starting with the proof BSCI, I have my list of chores to complete the study. The blog is also the few becoming a CCNP guide.

Today we finish the last of CBT Nuggets by Jeremy Cioara, and concludes that for the introduction of all concepts so easy and was very good. Now, it is necessary to establish the concepts and practice enough to stay in mind and more importantly, lead to career all that was learned.

I want to see the draft scheme that I needed to study the contents, because, unlike the CCNA certification where you can use the book of Mark, great source didactic content and very well explained for the CCNP books are those in which the CiscoPress content to me, is very sparse. It is placed muiiitos cases and artifacts that to my method of study just a little perplexed. I prefer to learn the concept, understand it and practice it to set well, but that is from each.

If you want to send any suggestions or bizarre scheme following this line hehehehe, very welcome.

Abrasive and a personal success for all!

Hello staff,

A large mass with Cisco certifies that it does get by working with what you really like, and to achieve a more advantageous placement on the market than someone who is not a certification. But finding those companies that work with Cisco, even more, find out which companies are Cisco’s partnerships is a complicated thing.

Therefore, in this post I want to make them a tool that I discovered last night that left me open-mouthed!

Is called:

Partner Locator

A tool to search the database of all companies Cisco Partner (Gold, Master, …), with particular companies and other firms that have a small relationship with Cisco. For most companies is presented in that class it serves, what it does with Cisco (Voice, Data, Infrastructure dozen things ..), location, contact information and website.

To be aware of the magnitude of this tool in my city, New Hamburg, I know only one company Partner of Cisco. It showed me 3 partner companies and other 8, some I never heard of.

In short, for anyone like me, seek opportunities in other countries and do not know exactly where to start, this tool is to let anyone open-mouthed. A Life for Cisco.

Abrasive staff,

Maurício.

Hello Guys,

This post is dedicated to all who would like to know exactly what needs to be a CCNA, what he does and the opportunity for the CCNA.

The information below was transcribed directly from Cisco’s website Syllabus. This website contains information on all certifications and skills gained from them.

The CCNA certification validate the ability to install, configure, operate, and troubleshoot medium-size routed and switched networks. CCNA certified professionals have the knowledge and skills to make connections to remote sites via a WAN, mitigate basic security threats, and understand the requirements for wireless network access. CCNA training covers (but is not limited to) the use of these protocols: IP, Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP), Serial Line Interface Protocol Frame Relay, Routing Information Protocol Version 2 (RIPv2), VLANs, Ethernet, and access control lists (ACLs).

Source: Cisco CCNA Syllabus Website

I tried to create a version with translation Google Translator to lay more in English, but he accused the URL as invalid, so only in English.

In the same website you can follow all the other certifications and have an overview of the entire career in the Cisco and moths also have a goal for your career.

I hope it was useful for everyone, because I have much doubt that many of what exactly is a CCNA, and also what to do after achieving this title.

A Abrasive staff,

Success to everyone.

Maurício.

Hello Guys,

This year I’m training, so the time passes very fast. I have to set my goals of the night pro day (it happened).

I decided that until the end of the year CCNP certified as me, then I’m already running behind.

The first part of the study will be reading the book CCNP BSCI - Official Exam Cert. Guide 4th edition by David Steward

After that, follow the same steps for the CCNA. Now, as this is the most complex use the CBT Nuggets more.

Below a picture of my set in note reading + Dynamips.

Embrace personal,

Success!

Maurício.
