Hi there - I am new to this message board but it looks like it could be useful. I passed my CCNA way back in 1999 and due to work changes etc I didn't keep it up to date. I understand that the exam has changed a lot since those days. I passed that one without having to do and prep work as I worked on routers/switches most of the time. Over the past 2 years I have been doing more security, firewall and content switching work so my Cisco router skills have dropped off a bit. I would like to retake the CCNA and do the CCNP as well. Can anyone tell me what these newer exams are like? is there a LAB involved (in 1999 it was just lots of multiple choice questios).

Many thanks,

HH

Yes there are now simulations on the exams (CCNA, CCNP, CCSP) and the CCNA has changed in topics (introduction of single area OSPF, Frame-Relay for instance)
Cisco made it harder but then again it will value the certification more

Hi,

Have a look at:
http@//certification.about.com/gi/dynamic/offsite.htm?zi=1/XJ&sdn=certification&zu=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.jidaw.com%2Fcertarticles%2Fccna640801.htm
This webpage gives a good idea of addition to new exam of CCNA.
