Share your ICND1 Experience

Just took the exam. Cleared it by 9XX. I was really worried that I failed, but thanks to God I passed. What I found were on the exam were the Implementation SIM, and the security testlet, and Show Configuration Sim. Remember the IP address is different watch out for that.

As the usual saying goes, Onto ICND2

Still valid.

I just took ICND1 100-101 and failed with 801/804. I had 50 questions. There were a couple of NAT questions, a couple of CDP questions, and a couple of OSPF questions. I didn’t have any ACL or IPv6 questions. There was a good amount of subnetting and security questions. I had some issues with the facility. They were having problems getting people signed in, and when they were getting me setup, the girl took my dry erase card and marker to copy down some authorization code to start my exam. I didn’t realize she still had it, and I had to go out to the lobby and get it back, wasting precious time after I had started the exam. Furthermore, the power went out for about 1 minute in the middle of the exam. A UPS kept my exam running, but the lights went out and it was certainly distracting at the very least. I was just about to select the 2 answers for the last question, when I ran out of time. It really kind of sucks because I knew the answers to that question. I found it somewhat difficult to study for this exam. I have an MCSE and a couple of UNIX certifications, and I never failed an exam for those. This exam was much more challenging than I expected, but I am finding Cisco networking very interesting and have enjoyed learning it so far. This site is a great tool to see if you are applying the concepts correctly, but the only question I had that was similar was the security testlet, and even that was a bit different. I began studying in April, watching CBT Nuggets, and reading Cisco CCENT/CCNA ICND 100-101 official cert guide by Wendell Odom. You MUST understand the fundamental concepts, and how data moves through a network. You also need to be very solid on subnetting and know the terminology very well. I found some of the questions to be very tricky, and I’m afraid I may have missed some questions by second guessing myself. I also think I focused too much on the new topics before I took the exam, instead of reviewing the earlier fundamentals. I will go over my weak areas and retake the exam soon. Good luck all!

Good Day Everyone…I am taking my exam on 06/29, just a few very short weeks. I am doing well with concepts, I am just a horrible test taker. Thanks for your information in this thread.

If there is a recent dump, can someone please send to:

Hi everyone;

I apologize for the dumb question, but I watch the CBT Nugget videos, read the Todd Lammle book, and most of the Cisco Press book. I am about ready to go test for CCENT, but I want to be as sure as possible.

What is the best test simulator I can use? I tried the one that comes with Cisco Press, but I hear thats harder and not really what the real test is like. Any advice please?

Passed this morning on second attempt with 825. Wasn’t as high as I desired, but it’s still passing. Used official cert training books (Odom), LearnKey videos, and this site to study. Had Security testlet, Implementation Sim 2, 2 drag and drops, and random questions. You MUST know the foundation elements, it’s virtually impossible to memorize the questions and answers. Only use this site as a guide to set your expectations and to guide your studying.

Hi,I wrote my icnd1 on 12/06/13 and I passed with 837. I had a lot of cdp,security,sims questions. A lot of sims questions I have seen on this site,I didn’t have a lot subneting. Good luck and just study hard

I passed my ICND1 with a 872 today. There was a bunch of show cmds, cmd outputs and cdp. The sub netting was way easy for me. 5 sub nettings questions with 4 being class C and 1 B and one kind answered itself because the answers were so wrong. I did get hit with a VTP question right off the bat that was super tough, that rattled my nerves. I had a security simlet that I felt was unfair as well. I don’t recall any questions from this site which for me is a good thing because I want to know this stuff. I used net academy , cisco learning network library (3month membership). 9tut.net, techexams.net and good old Google. I over prepared but that’s what I do 🙂

BTW I used transender also which is pure garbage. It learns what you don’t know and then hammers you on that. You get to the point that you think you don’t know anything.

First time I failed with a 749 after 6 hours of studying.

Second time passed with a 960 after studying Lead2pass and 9tut for two weeks. I highly recommend Lead2pass, as about 35 of the questions on my test were in Lead2pass.

Pass the score of 937. 90 % of the questions are here. One to three questions are new but of course if you know the concept and fundamentals you will identify the answer quickly.

I used ICND 1 by Wendel Odom, Todd Lamle, Cisco Press Exploration, CBT Nuggets, 9tut.com and Lead2pass.

Study well and know the concept and you will pass with no sweat. To God be the Glory!

got to be ready for ICND 2.

passed yesterday the following Q i remember
Router# ????????
!!! some output is omitted !!
would you like to enter setup mode (yes/no)

which of the following command are executed from the privileged mode
a) show running config
b) show start up config
C) setup
D) show version

on drag and drop
leased line ————— PPP
packet switching ——– frame relay
Circuit Switching ————PSTN
Cell Switching —————–ATM

and there is a question which four router are connected to each other and request
you to drag and drop the platform and interface IP address using Show CDP neighbors detail command

i use CBT nugget vedio
Wondel Odom
Todd Lammle
and of course 9tut !!!!

Passed today 850.

all below were on the test.

Implementation SIM

leased line ————— PPP
packet switching ——– frame relay
Circuit Switching ————PSTN
Cell Switching —————–ATM

Which Protocol uses connection-oriented service to deliver files between end systems.
FTP

two other Lab Sims I have never seen. Sorry I was not able to take better notes.
3 lab sims total
9 subnetting

Lead to Pass, and 9tut are still valid.

Thank you for everything on to ICND2

Just cleared it Alhamdullah, it took my 68 minutes and 874 out 1000

Passed 100-101 today with a 933
No ip 6 questions, lots of subnetting couple of simplest based on show commands.

Some static route, and some osi questions.

Taking 200-101 next week…..

Passed my ICND 1 last week, used packet tracer, boson, and random .vce i found online. Most of all 9 tut was spot on! thanks!

Passed ICND1 on 6/19 874 out of 1000. Implementation 2 SIM, Security Testlet, Drag & Drop……….alot of test material from this site………..Thank You

@Anonnymouse – please let us know about the 200-101 exam after you take it

I sat in this exam last Friday and failed. Wish I’d found this site sooner. The security testlet and a couple of the simletts I had were here. I panicked on the last simlett because I had only 7 minutes left and had 5 questions. I was stressed out and I was told to focus on subnetting. I had 3 questions that had to do with subnetting, the rest were having to do with connectors and connection types which I didn’t understand very well. I will take this test again in a couple of weeks. Anyone have any last minute tips?

Passed with 974, used CCENT Sybex by Todd, 9tut.net, Packet Tracer and dumps. Alhamdulillah. Good luck to all

Passed ICND1 today with a score of 974/1000. I had several questions shown here. I had the CDP sim, Security testlet, Show commands sim. The drag and drops that showed up on my exam were: WAN, PPP,FRame relay etc, the one with DHCP,ICMP,DNS,ARP and one more regarding transport layer protocols. I used CCENT study guide second edition by Todd Lammle, CBT nuggets ICND1 videos, 9tut, subnetting.net, lead2pass VCE. Big thank you to 9tut ! On to ICND2

@failed 1st time

Learn the concepts. Todd Lammle’s CCENT study guide second edition is very good for learning the concepts, also CBT nuggets ICND1 videos are very helpfull. If you understand the concepts, can subnet quickly, and understand the IOS commands you will be fine.

Good Luck

@Mike Honcho, My issue was the fact that I started panicking. I got the sims in the 1st 10 questions and spent 30 minutes on those (mainly because I was unfamiliar with the tasks they gave for the CLI…I’d used what came with Odom’s book for sims…so not enough, I ended up breaking down and buying Boson’s stuff) and because you can’t go back I screwed myself because I clicked next and after I clicked next, my brain clicked and I knew that the answer I chose was wrong, touche. I rushed through the rest of the test angry and stressed knowing I’d blown it by question 10. It sucked and quite a few of the questions I had were on here. Previously I had NO use with the CDP command and that’s what seemed to kill me, I’ve started researching the out put of the CLI commands and working with the CDP, I assumed the items I used for study would suffice however the items I had left out quite a bit of information.

firstly @Mike Honcho I hope your name is a Talledega Nights reference.

Secondly, passed yesterday with 899. I used 9tut and Todd Lammle’s CCNA book. Thanks very much for all the help and on to ICND2!

@ Ricky Bobby Yes it is ! Lol

Congrats on passing your exam

Hello ,I have copied the csmsreoped files from the “CCNA CBT Nuggets(by Jeremy)”CD1 : Part1/Part2/Part3CD2 : Part1/Part2/Part3but when I want to extract them with IzArc the Folder is empty with no filesThank you for your help

Hi guys long time reader first time poster!
Just took icnd1 this morning and in my opinion it was relatively easy. I downloaded the most recent icnd 1 practise exam from examcertification.com and between that and this site I recognised most if not all of the questions. The one I struggled with was the security testlet thats partly done on this site but I don’t know where I went wrong I just remember thinking all the answers to the testlet questions had potential to be right. Anyway I got a good score overall. Advise is don’t be nervous and go for it. My big thanks go out to 9tut and exam cert. my study material was cbt nuggetts, Todd lamle ccna, Cisco press, 9 tut and exam cert.
TIP: use Todd lamles method of subnetting, I learned it in a few hours and I could and still can subnet quickly in my head, no maths involved just memorizing!

I’m gonna take a side road and go down the ccna voice path now rather than r & s.
Good luck everyone

Passed yesterday with 874.

A lot of the questions from 9tut, SIMs I got were show CDP neighbor detail and then drag and drop the IPs/interfaces and routers to the correct locations. SIM with multiple (4) questions in relation to a Switch and Router configuration, show running config has been disabled so you need to use show interface etc. Also got the PPP/Frame Relay drag and drop. Quite a few wireless questions more than I thought I would get.

Used CCENT/CCNA ICND1 640-822 Official Cert Guide by Wendell Odom for theory, examcollection.com for exam dumps, 9tut and CBT Nuggets. This website is excellent and has a lot of the questions you’ll find on the exam but try to make sure you understand the theory before you sit the exam.

Will donate to keep this site going for sure!!!!

passed today with pretty good score.

Got pretty much the same questions as AlexMC no drag and drop. But, router and switch config, drag and drop the IPs/interfaces. I used examcollection, 9tut and CBT Nuggets.

On to the next one.

50 questions, 90 minute timeframe.
– Security Testlet, Implementation Sim, Show COnfig Sum
– No Drag & Drops

I passed (884/804) using 9tut and Examcollection.

On to ICND2 🙂

practice questions on –
http://www.ciscovce.com

Exam on Wednesday as well, any dumps to h49w73d@yahoo.com would be appreciated.

Getting ready to take my ICND1 exam next week…any new brain dumps would be appreciated, please send to LiMS77@yahoo.com

Test tomorrow at 1:30. Confident that I’ll pass, but still a little nervous. I keep thinking that Im gonna take the test and there’s gonna be this one section that I’ve never heard of before and catch me completely off guard.

Used 9tut, examcollection, and bryantadvantage to study.

Took my ICND1 exam on 7/4 failed with a 750. Really disappointing as I felt like I knew all of the material really well (got thrown off right away with several questions on DSL!, only had 2 Lab Sims and the rest multiple choice…not what I expected at all). Not going to get down just trying to get motivated to take it again here in a few weeks. Any new brain dumps would be appreciated, please send to RShoff77@yahoo.com

just came back from icnd1 with a score of 662!! this is my fourth time failing in over 6 yrs….I studied boson , exam cram, pearson, Bryant and I really get it but I just cant pass this test. So here I am now seeing the exact same questions and sims that was on my test today!! I have been studing some pretty old stuff…oh yeah routersim also v7. So happy to see that now there is a big chance of me passing by following closely what is said in here….Thanks 9tut!!

There was a question on ccent that asked about viewing the configuration remotely but did not know which command to input and you couldn’t do sho run config
so if you know how to view the network remotely with a sho command you will get this one

had implementation sim and did not know the command sho cdp neighbors so I know I put all the routers in the wrong place..if I had come here first I would have got that question correct with no problem…

Had my Test today, Passed today with a 925. Security Testlet screwed me up a little but other than that it was easy.

Ow a lot to this website. Thanks

Now on to ICND 2…

Passed ICND1 yesterday – 937 / 1000. I used this site, the Wendell Odom book (ICND1 / CCENT – 3rd edition), http://www.subnettingquestions.com/ (i did about 1000 of those!), plus http://www.examcollection.com/ and paid £20 for the VCE software (which i will be able to use again to help me with the ICND2 when i take it. 50 questions in the 90 minutes. I also had a tricky security testlet which dropped me a few points. Probably about 20 % of my points came from subnetting…don’t think i missed any of those. Thanks to all at this site.

I also want to point out before I forget that there were hardly any subnetting questions. I think there were 2 on the entire test.

Guess I got lucky 🙂

Had the test on 02/07. Got 787. I also did not have very many subnetting questions. I can do subnetting with my eyes closed, so i was very dissappointed. Also i revised hard on NAT and DHNCP, but had not very many q’s on that either. Got a few of the drag and drop from here and one of the implementation ones from here.
Got the exam booked again.

I just to took my ccent exam and Passed. Thank you God and thank you to 9tut and pass4sure.
look out for.
Point to point- lease line
atm- cell switched
pstn- circuit switched
frame relay- packets switches

well I passed today but not by much 812!! but thanks to 9tut for all the encouragement and this site!!! what a blessing but I did have a bunch of mind/word questions and only achieved 57% for small switched network..tricky stuff though

ICND2 in a month….hopefully

Taking the ICND1 exam on July 30 if you have good practice dump and labs please forward me henricharriere@live.com

Thanks in Advance

I passed the exam back in June. I used Cisco press, CBT Nuggets and 9tut! Thanks for all the help!

Past ICND1 640-822 on my 3rd attempt on the 16th July 2013, found the first two times really tough and ran out of time on bother occasions but on this time i made sure i knew the material and concentrated on my time management throughout the exam and passed.

Security sim was in the exam .

onto ICND 2

Peace

pass with 973 last week , thanks a lot 9tut . i used 9tut , CBTNuggets videos and Gns3 labs for practice.

Just wanna know if I fail my ICND2 exam then comes the new version if I book again for the exam will I use the previous version or the new one *confused*

What problem with ccna http://www.9tut.com

?????

just great. failed 2nd time. first time, two weeks ago had 801 (!!), studied really hard in the mean time, thought i’m getting 100% this time but scored 787. seriously thinking about giving up this s**t certification.

Maybe will 9tut will close …! Like ccna
http://www.9tut.com

🙁

Took the test and failed with a 787. Can you guys email some current brain dumps to: Benisai@aol.com

Go this web

http://jood-gifts.com/?referrerid=1469287970

looking to take the ICND1 exam soon, can someone please send me some braindumps : chazn1993@aol.com

Using a dum to study is mentsl

Using a dump to study is mental ! You can’t fail if you know all the answers

Took the test for the first time and passed, on July 24th. 937 and I finished in less than 30 minutes. Thank you 9tut!! Most of the questions came straight from this website. I used exam collection for dumps, CBT Nuggets and 9tut. I’m halfway through the nuggets for icnd2 and hope to take it in a couple weeks. Doing the old version, so I’ve gotta knock it out soon. This actually gets kind of fun and addictive. Good luck to everyone and don’t give up!!

Wrapping up my studying and i am about to take the text in the next week or so. I have a couple of questions

1. Does the test rely heavily on LABS?

2. Are the labs on the exam difficult to understand?

3. Can anyone PLEASE send me a link to where i can find questions from the exam.

I have been studying from CBTNuggets and Pass4Sure, are there anymore?

I have taken ICND1 Exam on 29th July got score 962. I got security simulation and placing the routers and IP addresses in a diagram Simulation in that Exam.thanks for 9tut for giving opportunity to learn important simulations. Going to write ICND2 on September 1st week see how it goes …Thanks Again guys

I have practiced latest VCE’s, pass4sure exam questions, CBT Nugget videos and 9tut questions.

PASSED yesterday with 950 marks…. started from scratch..studied FULL time(8 hrs a day) for only 12 days….materials:- Todd Lammle CCNA 6th edition + 9tut + exam collection dumps….. Actually all credit goes to my best friend who taught me all the concepts and made me work on real router and switches…… now we are preparing for ICND2….
my recommendation is to understand the concepts + master the subnetting + exam collection dumps + 9tut ….. then u will definately score 900+ ….BEST OF LUCK….

Passed about 6 weeks ago with a score of 899. Studying towards ICND2 now, looking to beat the 30th Sept deadline.

I Passed today with a score of 837. I got 100% in some areas of the exam too and finished with about 13 minutes to spare.
I had a few sims, drag and drop the secuirty testlet!
I used Chris Bryant, Exam Cram – well worth it, this wonderful site, Lammel, Packet tracer and actual equipment.
You’ll need to seriously be able to subnet, if you cant then do not sit the exam – subnettingquestions.org is great and Lammel for help in this area.
Good luck everyone else!

passed today 887 with 40 minutes to spare. security testlet was there, as well as the show commands sim.

Taking my test on the 16th hope all my studying has paid off!

Passed. Thanks 9tut. Implementation, security and configuration SIM on exam. Questions tips: DSL DSLAM use TDM, DSL backwards compatible with voice, switch-led not function due to bad cable. Router rip command, no network specified: rip started but no updates are running. Hope it helps

Passed w/ 850. I can confirm that the vast majority of these questions were on the exam (a few ip addresses may be switched around). Time to study for the ICND2 🙂

Passed with 950…for my studying material I use this website, CBT Nuggets, Exam Cram CCENT book. I was surprise I didn’t get the router rip sims. I did get a sim for show command. Time to look at ICND2.

Just knock down ccent1. Thanks to 9tut. I got 3 simulations.

What were the 3 simulations like?
Could you share any of the or all?
Thanks.

I took the ICND1 yesterday and passed with the help of 9tut.net. I also had 3 simlets on my test as well.

I took my ICND 1 today and I scored 812. I had written last 3 weeks but I was just few score away to the 804 pass marging. 3 teslets, 2 drag and drops and I sim. One of the Drag and drops was faimily but the 2nd one was quite strange and new. Thanks to Jehovah and my eversupportive instructor. I thank my wife and family for their tireless prayers too.Thanks to 9tut too.

Passes Icnd1 today 950 score with 45 minutes left. I did not get many subnetting questions. I probably had about 3 subnetting questions. I had 3 sims and all of them were similar to the sims mentioned on this site. No drag and drop questions.
I had a few DSL questions, microsegmentation, OSI layer questions, had a lot of questions about packet moving through switches and routers and their mac addresses and IP addresses.
I used wendell odom book, this site and subnetting questions.net
A big thanks to this site. Helped a lot.

download latest dumps http://www.examcollection.com/640-822.html

Does anyone know if you loose points for using the wrong commands in the simulation. I finally got the right command but i before that i used two wrong commands. Do i loose points for that?

Can someone send me the latest dumps at:Elivon40@yahoo.com

thanks

I just scored a 787 and did not pass. Not sure what areas to work on, I did find myself guessing on a few and second guessing some answers and changing them just before submitting. Frustrated. How many questions more would I have to get right to score 804 or higher? I need the latest dumps at mmedley_nt@yahoo.com

I passed ICND1 with an 834 today. I got the Security testlet, the drag and drop where PSTN goes with Circuit switched, the implementation sim, the show configuration sim. I also got one or two drag and drops that are not on this site. The rest is kind of a blur. Good luck.

ThatGuy:

No… only the results matter. You will not get docked for trying different commands. The only way that hurts you is in lost time.

Passed 2day 843, 3sims, thank God!!! After passing 640-822, can I take 200-101 to get ccna? Sent the question to Cisco, but I know the reply will take a few days.

Yes, you can take 200-101 after passing 640-822 to get CCNA certification.

Hi people,

Just passed mine 950/1000 (640-822). Materials used for vce, 9tut, Cisco learning Network.
Main thing to remember is understand the concept properly and you should be able to make it.

For non native English, Be careful of the scenarios twist and turns.

Take care !! Best Of luck.

Hi everyone! Just wanted to give my shoutouts to 9tut, CBTNuggets, Examcollections.com and VCEPlayer:) For all my studying guidance… I will be taking the ICND1 exam this Tuesday! So excited..haha..

PS: And also thank you very much to Cisco Packet Tracer for helping me master basic IOS commands!:D

ICND1 100-101 passed yesterday 973/1000, 3 sims, 2 were sh command sims and one was a OSPF sim, also had one drag and drop(protocols matching to there layer).
ICND2 next

Is the new ICND1 exam a lot harder then the old ICND1 exam? Which one should i study for.

PRAISE GOD!!! Just passed with a 974:) On to ICND2

Passed today with a 974/1000. Praise God! Shoutouts to Jeremy Cioara of CBTNuggets, Examcollections.com, 9tut.net, Cisco Packet Tracer:D On to ICND 2!!!

Passed the ICND1 today 950/1000. Studied everything here, CBTNuggets, Examcollections and Packet Tracer. Most all questions were covered in those places. On to ICND 2 before Sept 30!

pass today…..wow 1000, 40 min remaining

studying the cert guide just put me to sleep. 🙂

so instead did like like 3000 test questions, and study what you dont understand, people here tell you what else to study…..DO IT ALL, print out cert guide study questions and answers + cisco online practice modules then you can take with anywhere
had Implementation SIM, Show Configuration Sim, Security Testlet
tricky questions were…. DSL backwards compatible , micro segmentation benefits, what bridges do for networks. 802.11 by 14 channel and backward compatable

good luck, by the time you sit the test you’ve wound your self up, really its just the same as study time

Yesterday i passed ICND1 with score of 950/1000. i thanks to 9tut that help me to practice sim question and Testlet question. many question matches from this website. i also used video classes from urduitacademy.com. but this website is only for those who knows Urdu or Hindi. Go through this website , this is very useful video classes for Urdu or Hindi speaking.

today i pass ICND1 with score 850/1000. Implementation SIM,Security Testlet, and lot of subneting questions were there. i thanks to 9tut,Jeremy Cioara of CBTNuggets, Examcollections.com, Cisco Packet Tracer 🙂

Passed today,

Had the following on my test–

Implementation SIM, Security Testlet, Show Configuration Sim.

ATM=CellSwitched drag and drop. Also had a drag and drop about different protocals and when they are used. About 2-4 subnetting questions.

Off to do ICND 2 before the test changes. Good Luck!!
