| The Cisco Certified
Network Professional (CCNP) is a one (big) step
ahead of the CCNA level. The CCNP certification
validates an individual's networking skills at
the mid-career level. This advanced network implementation
certification are becoming increasingly popular.
It is often used as a step to achieve the CCIE
status. It also opens a wider career opportunity
for network administrators/engineers. CCNP requires
you to pass either four core tests or one foundation
and one support test.
Defenitely as an advanced level certification,
CCNP tests are much more difficult than the
CCNA xam. Cisco expects all CCNP candidates
to fully understand the advanced networking
concepts being tested. Each of the CCNP test
has been created in a way to make sure that
the candidates posses the knowledge and skills
required to support a more complex Cisco network.
Fill-in-the-blank questions that ask you to
type in a correct IOS command, select and place
(drag and drop) questions, and especially the
newly introduced router and switch simulation
questions have been specifically designed to
raise the level of difficulty of the test. By
maintaining or even increasing the test standard,
Cisco wants to make sure that every CCNP is
actually better than those who are not certified.
However, please do not get discouraged by this.
While difficult, passing the test is certainly
attainable with proper training and preparation.
We are here to help anybody with a willingness
to achieve success. If you plan your study correctly
and assess your knowledge using our sophisticated
SavvyEngine test simulator, you will have a
