But it is required to hold the CCNP certification. So if you take all 4 CCNP tests and haven't passed the CCNA test, you hold no Cisco Networking certs until you first pass the CCNA, at which point you'll be a CCNP. Seems silly to do that, might as well get a cert in the first place since you'll have to eventually to have the final cert. -- Jason Roysdon, CCNP+Security/CCDP, MCSE, CNA, Network+, A+ List email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Homepage: http://jason.artoo.net/ ""Keyur Lavingia"" wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > no, its not required, but recommended to get u started ..... > > Keyur. > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of > umer khan > Sent: Monday, April 09, 2001 1:31 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: ccnp question > > > hi , > is ccna required for starting the ccnp certification exams. > well i know this question has been asked before but i seem to have deleted > the > thread. so sorry for asking it again.
