Wendell Odom on R&S v4 Troubleshooting
October 30, 2009
Ah, as time passes all questions start getting answered. Many have feared the dreaded troubleshooting addition to the CCIE R&S v4 Lab. But as I expected, for the average hands-on individuals, it should be a breeze.
Wendell did a great write-up on the troubleshooting section, sharing his experience when he did the V4 Beta lab @ NetworkWorld.
In short the T/S section is Virtual, no real kit and the topology consists of 30-40 routers. Now dont get alarmed by the numbers. As per Cisco you can expect 10-12 questions and you have 2 hours to complete them. The questions are short and clear. Ie R1 cant ping P2, etc.
The good news ? Wendell, who I believe, is not as hands-on as many candidates, (he is still a legend) said the time was not an issue, and neither was the difficulty of the questions. He believes the questions to be reasonable.
Head over to his blog article to see his T/S section strategy.
