As I mentioned in a previous blog post before jumping into the CCIE studies I want to retake the CCNP Route & Switch exams. To refresh your CCNP you only need to take one of the three exams.
Here is the breakdown of the exams. Each exam is $300:
| 300-101 ROUTE | Implementing Cisco IP Routing (ROUTE) |
| 300-115 SWITCH | Implementing Cisco IP Switched Networks (SWITCH) |
| 300-135 TSHOOT | Troubleshooting and Maintaining Cisco IP Networks (TSHOOT) |
My plan is to take all 3 exams. 1) to refresh the CCNP and 2) prep myself for the CCIE written exam.
Today I’m starting my studies for the CCNP ROUTE 300-101, I will be reading, “Official Cert Guide by Kevin Wallace.”
There is a total of 767 pages of material to go through which are broken down into 18 chapters. I am planning on going through 2 Chapters a week:
| Chapters | Weeks | Dates | Progress |
| Chapters 1&2 | Week 1 | April 9th – 15th | |
| Chapters 3&4 | Week 2 | April 16th – 22nd | |
| Chapters 5&6 | Week 3 | April 23rd – 29th | |
| Chapters 7&8 | Week 4 | April 30th – 6th | |
| Chapters 9&10 | Week 5 | May 7th – 13th | |
| Chapters 11&12 | Week 6 | May 14th – 20th | |
| Chapters 13&14 | Week 7 | May 21st – 27th | |
| Chapters 15&16 | Week 8 | May 28th – June 3rd | |
| Chapters 17&18 | Week 9 | June 4th – June 10th |
I will have a separate post on labs and other material I will be using to for prep. Lets get this started…………………….!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
