Hi Lala,
Sorry I thought these locations were always quite open in terms of SP
seats, that was the case when I was scheduling for it.
IT seems they filled up completely up completely up to April.

Hi Andre,
Thank you for sharing your experience! Indeed the L2 stuff in the
lab can be tricky especially with PPPoE.
Keep up the good work and don't hesitate to ask any questions on
this list, there's a lot of SP knowledge available
here :-)
You could try and do the lab in San Jose or RTP as there are a lot
of seats open in those locations.

Well, I dont want to violate nda rules, but it's well know that
basic L2 is preconfigured but you may encounter some
troubleshooting or some portions with specific requirements. My
problem was that I wasn’t full prepared for what they asked and
some research on documentation would be needed. Definitively the
real lab is not the best time to try something you never did
before...

When you say L2 basics, you meant to say you could not bring your
frame-relay or ethernet or PPP. I thought frame-relay is
preconfigured and PPP in my opinion you can always skip and come
back later.

Hello guys
Unfortunately I’ve failed in my first attempt on the CCIE Service
Provider exam. Eventhough I had I put all efforts and dedication on
it, I wasn’t really expecting to pass on the first attempt. It was
just 2 months of study since I passed the written. I decided to go
to the lab with this short time pretty aware that this could
happen. It’s very hard to get a seat in Sao Paulo/Brazil for SP and
I couldn’t miss the chance to get lab experience ( or even pass )
when I found one seat available on Cisco Website, probably from
somebody dropped due to payment.
I am using IPExpert as the main guide for my preparation and I can
tell you know that they are really good and cover in different
pieces every topics we you need to pass de exam. I’m also using INE
and practicing some scenarios proposed by Antonio Soares on his
website.
What I can tell you about my experience is that I failed on the
basics: L2 (legacy), basic security and management. As many
questions are interdependent on the evaluation, I lost points
everywhere eventhough I could complete most of the other tasks. I
was pretty much well prepared for worst and didn’t pay attention to
basic stuff.
Now I will take some weeks off and then get back to IPE workbook 1
to focus on my weak areas and also some book reading, probably MPLS
Fundamentals.
At the end, I think the result was fair. If could complete those
basic tasks, I am not a Cisco Expert, YET!
CYA
