Yes - the Expanded Blueprint can be viewed as a list of WHAT I BETTER
KNOW. Topics that do not appear there should certainly be studied if
possible. After all, Cisco does have an awful big disclaimer in their
official blueprint regarding they have the right to test you on
absolutely anything the IOS code can perform. :-)
Now - to help you rest at ease a bit regarding IPv6, consider the exam
scoring.
It is very unrealistic at this point for Cisco to present you with a
lab exam that has the following point breakdown:
Layer 2 - 18
IPv4 IGP - 22
IPv6 - 20
That only leaves 40 points for everything else on the blueprint!
Keep up the hard work Andy, and remember, how do you eat an elephant?
One bite at a time!
I apologize in advance to all PETA members of this group. :-)
