Kingsley/All,
Sorry I was away on Vacation last week so I am trying to catch up on
a lot right now. I sent the following to a student recently. (I
have edited it a bit to include some updates and things that I think
are important.)
Here are my recommendations
1. Read Network Security Technologies and Solutions (Yusuf
Bhaiji, CCIE Security Program Manager). Although the book does not
go into great depth for the technologies it covers I think it is
invaluable for you to be aware of the various technologies covered
by the exam. This book is perfect for preparing for the written exam.
2. Begin working on Volume 1 Technology Focused Scenarios. As
you study take the blueprint and create a checklist of the blueprint
topics. Use this checklist to note details our material is
covering and compare it to the blueprint and use it as a guide in
understanding how your knowledge is progressing.
3. Attend the 5 Day ILT Course. This will really help to
solidify the knowledge you have been gaining working thru the
technology focused labs.
4. Begin work on the Volume 2 Mock Labs. These should give
you a good feel of what you should expect going into the Lab exam.
5. By this time I should have an updated video for the Video
on Demand, and you can use this to continue to refresh yourself on
the information you learned attending the bootcamp
6. Attend a OWLE. This one is very beneficial but at this
point it can be a pretty expensive journey so if money is a
restraint this is the one that I would say based on cost you could
continue without but there is no question it would greatly benefit
you.
7. If you do the OWLE I recommend it to be 2 to 4 weeks before
the actual exam. You would use this time to solidify your knowledge
and work out any week points.
8. Get the Labs of Yusuf Bahaji, http://www.ciscopress.com/bookstore/product.asp?isbn=1587140268
, and do them. Take the time to read thru the explanations as he
gives a great amount of detail on how the test is graded and gives
good detail on the labs themselves which will help you in better
preparation for the lab.
9. Take the Exam.
We also are going to release a study guide that is a bunch of notes
taken from the Documentation CD and condensed into a 50 page study
guide that covers a lot of advanced configuration details and should
greatly benefit you in studying for the exam. (These are the notes
of one of our students, Piotr Kaluzny’s, that he used in studying fo
r the exam and I was really impressed by the amount of material and
information available so I wanted to make them available for everyon
e else.) These will be a free update to everyone that has bought th
e blended learning solution.
I should have these notes available for existing customers within a
day or two.
The rest of these books I recommend but don’t need to be read in any
particular order. You can use them as reference material thru your
studies
Cisco ASA (Omar Santos) – This is one that I am going to pick up and
may be even better than the Cisco ASA, PIX, and FWSM book I was rec
ommending earlier. I have not read this one.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/netsol/ns617/networking_solutions_sub_solution_home.html
. I recommend reading the NAC Framework configuration guide. I
personally learned a ton from this document on NAC. I would
recommend this over the Network Admission Control Volume II: NAC
fraemework.
SSL Remote Access VPN’s (Frahim/Huang). The book concentrates a lot
on SDM and ASDM which isn’t very helpful for the test so it is diff
icult because you can’t use these in the test. But there are a lot
of new features for SSL VPN that are only supported from GUI. So yo
u can use the book to find out how to do things from GUI and then go
to command line and see how it was implemented.
Cisco Router Firewall Security. Personally I have not read this
book but it comes highly recommended even though it is a little out
of date.
