Share your ICND2 Experience

Shawn
Kudus!!! & Congrats!
Still 50 questions or?? and Time? 90min?
I have heard ICND2 is less time than ICND1 and less time… Is that true?
Are you moving on to switch?
Great Job and your walking tall today in Florida…!!
H.

Anyone have a pkt of VTP sim?
Thx…
H.

hmeister the pkt, VTP Sim
You can download this sim and practice it with Packet tracer here.
You will have to get your own Packet Tracer however..no link for that.
https://www.9tut.net/icnd2/icnd2-labsim/vtp-configuration-sim#more-129 (look at bottom).

***However, I cannot FIND the EIGRP, OSPF Simlet’s, and I’m Using Packet Tracer from Cisco..these Labs are Brilliant guys! Anyone have a link for the 9Tut Simls for EIGRP/OSPF/NAT?**

I am taking my ICND2 (next) week folks, and I just can get NAT down. I understand the theory, it’s just not sticking? How much of NAT is on ICND2? I thought I would throw this out to the Cisco Community…what helped you MAKE IT STICK, so I can HELP ME PASS??

thanks so much 9Tut! I will be back to post my goods, after I PASS!! 🙂

Verified 90-min 40-50 questions, drag-n-drop and 2-3 Sims…Bring it on!!!

**Looking for EIGRP, OSPF Simlet’s, I’m Using Packet Tracer from Cisco..these Labs are Brilliant guys!****

PLEASE POST ASAP!!!
I already have the VTP, Seriously looking for the EIGRP,OSPF,NAT and Hotpot…if they Exist? ?

Thanks a million.
-Vash

OK, Found the Cisco Packet Tracer Software for those SIMS: http://www.9tut.com/download/CCNA_DragDrop_EIGRP_RIP_NAT_and_implementation_LabsInPacketTracer.zip

I’m Requesting the EIGRP, Access-list and NAT, Hotspot sims.

Thanks Gents and Chixs!

OK Evidently these are the labs..w00t!
Found them here:http://www.9tut.com/ccna-faqs-a-tips

Vash…
Thanks for the good detective work… Will download now.
The PT helps with learning and training in the SIM and CLI for speed.
Just breaking into NAT and this will take some practice.
I will review CBNuggets as the video is very good and hopefully he has a good lesson there.
Will let you know.
Good luck on ICND2 and all the best.
Hope you will be standing tall next week with your CCNA!…

Vash…
90 min – yes – same as ICND1 with 50 questions. Thx for confirmation…
Associate at work took ICND2 last month and neglected to keep track of time and ran out before end of exam!
Good luck next week and I will be reviewing CBNuggets for NAT and will update you later today.
H.

Timing comments here aer interesting I failed icnd2 at beginning of month, it was over 75 minutes though – Ive done ccent (icnd1) previously.

I just passed my ICND 2 640-816.
Just a heads up, do not go into this test with only dump knowledge. you will WASTE your money.
This cert is difficult. and the Sims are tough!
Know the material. study the Wendell Odom ICND 2 Cisco Press book. and CBT Nuggets, if you dont have an actual instructor.

Spend the time to Learn, not memorize! I cannot emphasize that enough.

Good luck to everyone in the future in their Cisco Certs.
-Trevor

Thank you for the update hmeister!!! appreciate that.
And yes, if you testing for this exam you have to know the material very well…pass!

A.D.
Check your mail…

As some of you know, VCE is for an Exam Engine. It is just another tool to use on your way to earning your CCNA+.

And I agree with Trevor, no one can survive memorizing VCE tests however, if you want to use VCE in the correct way, to study while using this tool, reading your Cisco Press, or reading your Lammle, using Packet Tracer to learn CLI, Read some more and finally study and listen to CBNuggets then you will have a better chance to pass the test and retain knowledge. The VCE test engine can assist you with showing your weak points and what you need to study to pass. It will also fine tune your test taking to allow you to function in the test environment.

My hope to all of you and some of the less fortunate folks here who may not have access to Cisco classroom training, Cisco books and perhaps even a job that has a budget to allow them some training is to give back something here to assist with the Cisco curriculum.

All the best to everyone and hope you all pass. ICND2 is not easy and I can’t imagine trying to pass by just memorizing a VCE – (IMHO) Keep Studying – And when you get to the point when you think your head is going to explode – step back and be honest with yourself and go over the syllabus and make sure you know the material! It can be an introspective experience to better your Cisco skills!

Cheers and good luck to all of you…

H.

hmeister, could you send a copy my way also? andermle at yahoo dot com Thanks for your help….

Andermle – Check your email…

Hmeister, thanks a lot! Awesome!! I completely agree with you. I have been studying for quite a while. To me, dumps also helps in figuring out what Cisco wants from you. Sometimes those questions are just tricky and even though you understand all the concepts (and work on routers like I do), you still can get the question wrong.

Hmeister, your URL is bad…fyi thanks brother!

send me your email address….

webadmin@nettechonline.net

Passed the test today with an 840 and noticed a couple things.

1) The VTP sim, here it says to use the LAST known IP address, but on the test, it asks for the FIRST. Be careful.

2) There is a question showing the symbols of the routers, switches, and whatnot, the answer is ATM (Square with 2 lines crossing making an X).

3) Study the 10.6 dump, its updated and about 35/40 questions are from there. Yes, there are 501 questions, but study them all!

Good luck guys, this site is great

Kudos & Congrats – Oh Yeah!
Your walking tall today!

Congrays “Oh Yeah!” To be more specific, where and what is this 1.6 Dump? .VCE ??

Again, Drink-up buddy…You’ve done well and should be proud!

I HAVE EMAILED YOU SIR…..

webadmin@nettechonline.net

Took the exam today and failed! I got and 811 and needed 825! *sigh* I got the same as Oh yea did The VTP sim, here it says to use the LAST known IP address, but on the test, it asks for the FIRST. There is a question showing the symbols of the routers, switches, and I think I picked the wrong answer! it was a few other questions that I havent seen before. I did have a few drag and drops, the frame relay hotspot, and just a few other that was listed on the site. Do anyone have any recent or valid dumps that they can email me?

hmeister
if you could be so nice as to send me the .vce it would be greatly appreciated.

jwash1ngton@aol.com

Does anyone have boson netsim

Oh Yeah! Congrats for passing the exam. Am just a little confused. Which dump are you asking us to go through ?

Passed the INCD2 this morning. 15.6 vce covered it well. Frame relay and VTP sims again. Choose the LAST ip and give it to the host this time. Thanks to all and keep up the good work. 40 questions and 75 minutes is the way both of my tries were setup. Plenty of time to write down on the pad provided stuff like a subnet chart and a few commands. Luukash and hmeister nice work on the vces. Most of the people that come here don’t know how much you are really helping them. Your work helped me most with the time element.

This is the revised Admin VCE – Split into 6 exams – Fixed the drag & drops in A & B only.
Cleaned up questions… This is newer than last tuesdays…

http://rapidshare.com/files/453186056/Cisco.ActualTests.640-816.v2011-01-10.by.ADAdmin-Rev20.vce

Good luck to all and congratulations to the newest CCNA’s! This is a good Friday for you!!
remember – Rapidshare only has 10 D/L so let me know and I can repost…

H.

Congrats Andermle…!

Thanks hmeister. You ask me to let you know about your admin vce…look at question 14 in test A. It’s got the wrong pic/info to match the answers. Also, when you do test C, question 16 needs some work. I only went through A,B, &C. Hope that helps.

andermle
Yes – thanks and I remember seeing the question 14…
Will critique both these and edit.
Also, as you know there are mistakes and also I would like correct these and add comments to the harder questions and reference Ciscopress…

Will update later this weekend….
Thx
H.

andermle:

A-14 – An Ethernet switch receives a unicast frame with a destination MAC that is listed in the switch table.
What will this switch do with the frame?

Yes – the explanation has a picture that was added that refers to Mac-Address Tables on switches – I kept that in although it is not exactly what is referenced in the question it does however refer to the mac-address-tables and how they work. If you find another example that closely resembles this scenario let me know.

************************

c-16 – What are three advantages of VLANs? (Choose three.)

Yes – Looked at this and says “Choose Three” and there are only two checked as correct.

A. VLANs establish broadcast domains in switched networks.
B. VLANs utilize packet filtering to enhance network security.
C. VLANs provide a method of conserving IP addresses in large networks.
D. VLANs provide a low-latency internetworking alternative to routed networks.
E. VLANs allow access to network services based on department, not physical location.
F. VLANs can greatly simplify adding, moving, or changing hosts on the network.

Answer:
A, E, F (IMHO)

B almost looks good – Any thoughts?

http://rapidshare.com/files/453267761/Cisco.ActualTests.640-816.v2011-01-10.by.ADAdmin-Rev21.vce

We are not talking about the same Exam A question 14…the one I’m see is a frame-relay map question. The picture is of the router Barcelona, but the answers are from router Dubai. This is on your ADmin rev18. I see why we don’t see the same question 14…the questions are randomized. The question I’m speaking of starts out with “A static map of LA-Group…” As for your answers to the vlan question(which was one my exam yesterday), I chose A, E, F. I need to go back and see if that’s correct. I felt sure of A & F.

Also, the question on exam C is randomized also. It starts out “You are a Jr. Engineer…what 2 answers…” In the answers, you can only choose one answer. Sorry for the confusion.

Thanks Hmeister! I received ur email! Im studying now! thank you soo much!

Andermle…
Yes, the randomizing doesn’t work with us when trying to naildown a question.
Yes, will check the Barcalona ques.
Last night and this morning I worked through Exam C in detail and cleaned up about 15 plus questions.
Sunday I should have another decent update. I am critiquing 9tut’s drag and drop and trying to figure out how to incorporate the 4 questions in one question scenario. I think I can break out the 4 questions into one separate exam and turn off randomozing.
Ttyl
H

Don’t make it too easy for these guys..

Hi Andermle…
Ok –
Just wondering who is the original author on AAdmin? Who ever he is – Thank-you…

This tweeking the AAdmin VCE test engine helps me too!
Part of my study process is to try and find the items I can honestly say I need more work on.
Tweeking the exam helps get me there… and keeps my interest.
Some of 9tut is already in this VCE. For example, some of the lab sections on the published 9tut site is included in a few questions.
I just would like to see if I can create a question that runs in Visual CertExam that incorporates Packet Tracer where you have to enter syntax on the CLI just like the exam in order to answer a question…
Regards;
H.

Keep up the good work Hmeister!!!

I’m not sure who gets the credit. Kuukash and Gap were putting together vce’s when I came here to this site. I think both got tired of the “trolls” bashing their work.

andermle – Ok – thanks for that – Yes, that scenario you describe gets old fast…
Today I categorized Exam A & B and (off topic) finished my income taxes…
Will be categorizing the entire exam to allow focus on individual ICND2 contents.
Lan Switching
IP Routing
Routing Protocols
WAN
Scaling IP address space
etc.

And then more study… 🙂

I really appreciate the hard work hmeister, I look forward to your next update.

Ok – this is coming together…

Who is taking there test this week?

H.

My resit is next week 30/3/11
Would you mind sending me the updated vce rev24 , max downloads reached on rapidshare
sj200449 at fluffyrodent.co.uk should work

Thanks 9tut for your priceless help. I cleared my icnd2 yesterday with 919/1000 points and I am happy.it will not be possible without you. To my fellow candidates, let me give you a hint about the exam. Icnd2 contains one vtp sim to configure the second switch with no access to the router,so use show running-config to obtain the default gateway and the the ip of the other switch and pay attention the first or the last available ip address to give. Some from sub netting drag and drop..access list ip,ip address, wild card mask..0.0.0.0. And some like drag n drop split horizon lsa, poison reverse. One thing to mention, don’t only rely on icnd2 sections. There are some questions from ccna page also. From ccna hotspot the frame relay question was there, it has 5 questions based on the sim. Use show frame-relay map and show running-config commands to answer them.one and last thing I advice you to know subnneting and the materials. Don’t memorize dumps only. And know all show commands as they are ten commandments. Show running-config, show vtp status, show interface vlan, show Mac-address-table, show spanning-tree, show frame-relay map, show ip arp, show vlan are the most important commands. Before the exam starts, write all the commands you remember on your given paper and all subnetting calculations to save time. Good luck on your exam.

Congrats Temesgen… you are now CCNA

Yes, I agree about the memorizing…
And thanks for the 10 commandments – nice way to do this… 🙂
Will check out the CCNA section as well
Did you have the 40 question or 50 question exam?

thx

@hmeister, thanks. There are 40 questions. I used pass4sure and vce and similar question banks issued by my instructor( hard copy) I found some wrong answers in pass4sure. Always double check in 9tut site to be sure. My vce question banks are for mobile(iPad ) I am not sure if you want that, I can email you. Any further questions you can hit me temesgenart@yahoo.com I will be glad to help.

Keep up the good work Hmeist..I know I appreciate it!

Thank you Temesgen afework for the lil’Nugget of info.
V.

Hello Temesgen afework: I also have to ask, is the CCNA Hotspot SIM similar to the one in the CCNA Section?
Also, you mentioned (2) Sims that you had a VTP and HOTSPOT(Eigrp ??)…was that all you had for SIM’s on your ICND2?

thank you sir,
Vash

@hmeister – YOU ROCK! Really, you do. I appreciate what you have done here. Thanks for sending me the dump last week. I passed ICND2 today. I had the 40 question exam. I read @Temesgen’s comments and well, we must have had the same exam! Funny story, I arrived early to the exam, and sat in my car with my laptop and opened exam C to get my head into it. I got through at least 15 questions before I went inside, and when I took the exam, 5 of those questions were on the exam. As said before, know why and how things are right or wrong, and 9tut will prepare you for the exam. Also, go through the 9tut.com’s sims and questions, many were on my exam. @hmeister, I can email you more specifics if you would like.

Passed ICND 2 today just on 2nd try. I got 838. It is tricky exam. Thaks to all the people who prepared the dumps. They are a great tool. i had the VTP Sim. Had to choose the 1st available ip address. Also had frame-relay hotspot and a OSPF hotspot.

Also to add to your 10-commands: I would #show ip ospf interface x/x,show ip ospf neighbor. show frame pvc, show frame lmi..etc

@vash, my sims were one that on icnd2 section which you have two switches and one router connected and you must configure switch 2 (branch-2) with only one switch access to get the info. The other two are the frame relay questions on ccna hot spot page.

AD – & Chris Kudos!

AD – Yes, send me your notes if you have time…
I will review what you have here as well…

Congratulations to the both of you – Now CCNA! ….
H.

Received with thanks!

Thanks 9tut passed ICND2 with 851 marks.. It was 40 question test. Got 4 drag n drop from here and then frame relay sim, vtp sim the one with adding new switch and then take it in domain and make it client, eigrp. I prepared from vce rev 24 and like 20 questions from it. 🙂 So thanks Hmeister and 9tut Admin.
🙂

Vacef…
Check your email…

Chintan – Thanks for the valuable update – and details.
Glad the VCE worked for you…
Kudos! you are now a CCNA!

Hmeister,

Would you sending me the latest version of vce to v.damp@yahoo.com.sg, I’m taking the exam on next month…

Thanks in Advanced 🙂

Hmeister,

Could you also please send a copy to me at emiddime@yahoo.com

Thank you very much, you are a tremendous help!! I truly appreciate it.

WRUSSELL06@YAHOO.COM wow, can someone send me a copy. I am taken this exam in two weeks thanks

WRUSSELL06@YAHOO.COM hmeister can you send me copy. i am taken the exam in two weeks thanks
wrussell06@yahoo.com

Great hmeister !

Many Thanks

hmeister, may I please get a copy sent to XanALaOM00@yahoo.com. I am taking the exam in two weeks as well; thank you for your time.

Hi hmeister, Could you send the Vce Rev 24 to my e mail address:

yusong192000@yahoo.com.sg

Appriciate! Going to take exam On March 30th. Will share with your guys once I finished the test!

hmeister!
rapidshare link was gone. Will you send that to my email nmhtun40@yahoo.com?
I appreciate your help I’ m about to take exam.
Thanks.

hmeister!
I got it from where you uploaded. 2011-03-20 dated.
I’m on it. Thanks alot.

Good luck naga

hmeister, can you send Rev24 to barton2870@netzero.com?

thank you

I just passed ICND2 with a 932 and 15 minutes to spare at the end :-). Definitely feels good after failing it twice. Like other people have said you have to know the theory; you also need to put the time in to learn the material and I would suggest to use cisco press practice exams. Definitely practice with packet tracer and GNS3 too!

I was stuck on one problem, but turns out I got it right—> (OSPF will choose the highest up/up loopback IP for the router id, then the highest up/up IP from the remaining interfaces if it can’t obtain one from a loopback int). Thanks 9tut, this site helps soo much with the test!

out of the 4 books I’ve read, I have to suggest Wendell Odom’s CCNA ICND2 Official Certification Guide as the best book for this test.

Onto the CCIP for me!

HI hmeister
Thank you for your sending me the link. To those who want to download the VCE file. Can look for exam collection website.

Many thanks again!

@ Dear Hmeister

Please send the VCE revision to my address, Many Thanx!

Hi, anyone took ICND2 that have access list sim in it? how come there is no access list sim under ICND2 but there is in CCNA?

Thank you hmeister!
The new version works well!

I am not sue about the access list sim either. I have praticed many Access list questions~~

hmeister..thanks for ur upload..is that the latest 1? thank you 🙂

hi hmeister,
can you kindly send me the vce revision at baileystudiotampa@yahoo.com

Just passed today. Thanks 9tut!

Sim was VTP.

ICND2
Latest version is on mediafire link above…
Good luck…
H.

can someone please send me the vce rev 24? Thanks.
scott.sara@frontier.com

Resitting ICND2 on Wednesday next week, now bricking it, will advise 🙂

can someone please send me the vce rev …..thanks to all baileystudiotampa@yahoo.com

So Stephen…
Usually “bricking it” means it no longer works?
(yes, I have asked this question – I live under a rock – sorry)

Bailey – check your inbox

Great site. Had a recent ICND-2 Test. A few IPv6 questions. One was “which of the following are valid IPV6 addresses. Eliminated the IPV4 address right away but ‘froze’ on a IPV6 address that had “::” on the end with no subnet mask. Example: 2005:4003:edfe:beef:: …that that was it..no /64 or /56 after the :: The address just ended with the ::. Said yes but knew in my heart it was not. Any feedback.

Struggling with ICND2. RSTP popped up suddendly on recent test and asked which port will be come the discarding port. I was all prepared for pretty much any STP question but the had to bring in RSTP with it’s myriad of additional port roles.

1st question I got in ICND-2 was :
What commands provide IP, Layer 1 and Layer 2 information. (choose 3 …think it was). Sat there thinking they wanted 3 commands that show you IP, Lay1, & Lay2 all in one command and I believe only 2 will do that: Show Interfaces & Show Running Config. The other choices were: show ip route and show ip interface…then I realized they must mean choose the commands that will give you IP, Lay 1, & Lay2 but not necessarily commands that give you all three. Anyone get this one?

thanks 9Tut. Very good info here. Say, any comments on the OSPF Sim question regarding Classful routing. 4 or 5 routers are shown with various networks but all are either 192.168.5.x or 172.16.x.x. How may networks are there is the question. Answers are 2, 4, and various other selections up to 10 I think. I selected 2 right away and moved on….but though about it afterwords. 192 is a Class C so Auto Summarization would suggest 192.168.5.0 is 1 network. Then we have the 172 .16 networks. 172 is a Class B so the other network must be 172.16.0.0. Voila ……2 networks. No need to lose any sleep ….right?
