Hello Anthony,
Thank you very much for sharing this detailed blueprint. It will be very
usefull. After failing my 1st attempt in Set06, i found that one of the
biggest mistakes i made was not taking detailed notes of all i did during my
preparation. Something you learn and master in the early stage of your
preparation is easily forgotten. This is a very long journey and there is so
much to learn and master. So follow this advice and use Anthony's detailed
blueprint as a starting document.
Regards,
Antonio

Subject: Question about the DOC CD
I have been going over the DOC's page but I am wondering if I am wasting
time on things I don't need to be looking at. I have taken the LAB twice
and know pretty much that all is fair game. Obviously you need to look at
the Cisco IOS Software site with all the information and the Catalyst
switches site, but I am wondering if I am missing something or looking at
something I should worry about.
I guess what I am asking is does anyone have a specific group of topics that
they cover front to back, such as what I listed above and other than the
obvious (routing/switching/specialties), or is it hit and miss?
