Hi Razzaq,
Sorry to hear you did not make it. But it seems you did very well in the core
topics. In my first attempt, my weak areas falled into the same as yours.
"Online Doc CD was really not helpful during my attempt.
I want to know how to cover IOS / Security topics"
I think your comments explains it. You need to learn know to use the Doc CD to
find information about the topics you are familiar with, and more
importantly topics that you are NOT. It may sound waste of time learning to
navigate DOC CD even for topics that you are familar with, but in the real
exam you never know you may forget a very simple command of your favorite
topics. Then in that case, DOC CD is your life saver. In addition, by
navigating for area you familiar with, you may see some unfamilar features
that you never seen before. In my last try, i found DOC CD extremely usefull!
These two miscellenous topics like IOS services /Security you'd better learn
from the Doc CD. I do not remember by heart how to configure many features of
these two topics, (and I never try to memorize them) but I can quickly find
where they are documented in Doc CD, and I can simply cut & past direclty from
there. That's the best approach to target these two topics.
If you can fix these two weak areas, your next attempt will be a piece of
cake.
Better luck next time.
Cheers,

Hello,
Its sad to say that I didnt clear my CCIE R&S Lab Exam.
My weak areas on lab attempts was IOS / Security / IPV6 were I hardly
score.
I had not taken any bootcamp but with work experience I am capable of doing
most of routing& switching task.
In the lab Exam I got 90+% in switching & IGP task
Online Doc CD was really not helpful during my attempt.
I want to know how to cover IOS / Security topics, i would be very grateful
for all your inputs.
