| Overview
of the CCNP BCMSN Exam |
 top |
BCMSN
is a qualifying exam for the Cisco Certified
Network Professional CCNP® as well
as the Cisco Certified Design Professional
CCDP® certifications. The BCMSN exam
(642-811) will test materials covered
under the new Building Cisco Multilayer
Switched Networks (BCMSN) CCNP course.
The exam will certify that the successful
candidate has important knowledge and
skills necessary to build scalable multilayer
switched networks; create and deploy
a global intranet, and implement basic
troubleshooting techniques in environments
that use Cisco multilayer switches for
client hosts and services. The exam covers
topics on switching technology, implementation
and operation, planning and design, and
troubleshooting.
The
latest version of BCMSN exam is a
computer-based exam, with multiple-choice,
fill-in-the-blank, select-and-place,
and simulation style questions.
With the latest addition
of a simulation type question, Cisco
again
increase the level of difficulty and
therefore raising the value of CCNP certification.
With this new question type, a test candidate
is required to enter Cisco IOS commands
as he/she would expect to get from a
real
Cisco switch in a real world environment.
While its version and features have been
updated, the exam still refer to the
existing
exam guidelines and course materials. |

| Ways
to Prepare for the Exam |
top |
There
are several different ways to prepare
and pass the exam, depending on how much
bugdet you have access to:
- If you are lucky enough to afford
a a Cisco authorized CCNP training course
Building
Cisco Multilayer BCMSN Network (BCMSN),
then we strongly suggest you to attend
it. For employees who work for Cisco
authorized partners or resellers, there
is a very good chance that they will
send you to this training course.
- Otherwise, don't get too dissapointed
because you can not afford this expensive
course. Purchase CCNP
BCMSN Exam Certification Guide (CCNP
Self-Study, 642-811), Second Edition
from Cisco Press. It is a very
good book as a starting point for the
exam.
- Don't risk your chance of passing
the exam by not getting SavvyeNGine
642-811. You will not regret this
important decision!
- Last, if you have additional budget
and time to spend, you can expand your
knowledge and skills by getting the
CCNP
Self-Study : Building Cisco Multilayer
Switched Networks (BCMSN) (2nd Edition)
- Cisco Press, also available
from Cisco Press.
