Dear Sirs,
First of all,I would like to say thank you for all of thie CCIE-Lab
mailing list. I especially thank for who post the valuable questions
and answers.
I will take rest and will challenge new track again.
As I am Japanese,I had taken my second attempt at Tokyo at Oct,7.
The most prominent barrier is that all materials(books,courses)
and even lab exams are conducted in English. For such like me
non-native reader of English is so stressful to read *many* *many*
CCO,Cisco Press, and DOC CD. ;-)
I take my path as follows.
1.Read many books and CCO documents and I was sure to config
myself examples on these documents. And after reading,I
tried to hands-on again and confirm it works.
There is no partial points at lab exam,so it is so important
that we can config and works perfectly!
2.I build my own home lab and buy IPExpert Workbook.
I go through these labs twice. But even I have received
WorkBook 5.0 updates, I did not do these labs. They were too
difficult for me. I was really depressed with these difficulty!! ;)
Anyway I recommend to purchase IPExpert. IPExpert's CCIE level e-labs
also helped me.
3. I read this mailing list and pick-up links for online documentations.
I read twice these documents and hands-on.
Lab Experience:
I have troubled with ATM configuration and I had lost 1.5 hours to
manage it. ;( Yes,it was resolved and that was my simple configuration
mistake. I was really upset. I sit carm down a moment
and back again. As I had a confidence that I had gone thorough IP Expert's
difficult labs,I manage to get my cool back.
I think the pressure of test is so big,and may tend to lose one's head.
The key point to recover self-possession depends on how many time you
hands-on and solid understandings of logics and skill of trouble shooting.
Concentrate to understand the core topic and logics. It helps escaping
from trouble swamp.
Thank you all again.
And especially thank you Wayne for good IPExpert workbook, and
also thank you Brian Dennis for always precise advice in this mailing list.
