  1.. Lab Exam Content and Equipment Changes

  CCIE Candidates should note the following changes to the technical content
and equipment for the CCIE Lab exam. The content changes affect the CCIE
Routing and Switching Lab exam, while the equipment changes affect all CCIE
certification tracks.

  The CCIE program continually monitors the topics and technologies covered in
the CCIE certification tracks. The end result of this process is that a topic
may be removed from the exam to allow greater emphasis on features or
technologies that are more current in the industry.

  Therefore, effective November 4th, 2002, the following topics will no longer
be tested on the CCIE Routing and Switching exam:

  IGRP
  Token Ring
  Token Ring Switching
  IPX

  Please note that DLSw+ will remain as a valid topic on the exam.

  Between September 1, 2002 and November 4th, 2002 all CCIE labs will replace
the current Catalyst 5000 switches with Catalyst 3550 switches. However, the
only switching features tested during this time will be those common to both
devices - additional features on the Catalyst 3550 will only be tested after
November 4th, 2002.

  Please note that except for the change in switches, no new topics are being
added to the content covered by the Routing and Switching exam. However, many
features currently tested will now be able to receive more weight on the exam
after November 4th.

  If you have questions regarding these changes, please contact
ccie-lab@cisco.com.
