    @ Markus I don’t agree with your statement that ICND1 is tougher…ICND2 tests deep into routing protocols, AD, FD, metrics and troubleshooting. and seeing that there is a full chaper on OSPF, EIGRP and TROUBLESHOOTING in the odom study guide you definately need to pay alot of attention to those topics, none of which is tested in ICND1. Make sure you do a lot of practice questions

    Can no one answer my question πŸ™ ? Please read up, Someone needs to just explain that pls

    I think I may have answered my own question, if anyone can verify please let me know?

    The reason answer B is not valid is because of the extra line at the end.

    @NN
    the correct answer is C why?
    EIGRP put the route with the best metric in its routing table…looking at the topology, the first line tells you how many route would be in the routing table, by showing 1 successor …..
    and the successor is the one with the lowest metric which is the one with 27????????

    @Al_D I just recently looked through VTP documentation… global configuration vtp mode (client) or whatever seems to be the only way to configure these parameters. in my honest opinion I think you might have ran into a simulation bug. I have heard of these things happening before on these tests. you should have nicely confronted the proctors for the issue you described.

    unless someone here has a larger understanding of how VTP works for configuration, I think you got hosed.

  9. fsl
    May 4th, 2011

    @AL_D
    There is another way. I’ve done it before on old switches. I think it’s something like that (can’t really remember)

    Switch-B# vlan database
    Switch-B(vlan)# vtp transparent
    Setting device to VTP TRANSPARENT mode.
    Switch-B(vlan)# exit
    APPLY completed.
    Exiting….

    @jharry

    Yea man. I also got that frame-relay question near the end, with just a few minutes left. Thankfully, I knew I was doing and was able to answer that question very quickly. I must say tho, I got a little nervous and didn’t think i would pass, but I did. Almost perfect sore πŸ™‚
    I am very confident about my abilities. I only checked this page for some confident boost, because I am not willing to shell out 125 dollars and not pass the exam. LOL πŸ™‚

    Do we need to know how to calculate EIGRP metrics using the formula for the INCD2 exam ??

  15. Question that made me confused
    May 5th, 2011

    1) A router has learned three possible route that could be used to reach a destination network. One route is from EIGRP and has a composite metric of 20514560.Another route is from OSPF with a metric of 782.The last is from RIPv2 and has a metric of 4.
    Which route or routes will the router install in the routing table?
    a) the OSPF route
    b)the EIGRP route
    c)the RIPv2 route
    d)all three routes
    e)the OSPF and RIPv2 routes

  16. NN
    May 5th, 2011

    EIGRP has the lower administrative distance of all three protocols listed so I think the answer to the question is B.

    @Bailey,

    Yes, and i need to thanks all, this site helps a lot ! Also the vce was very usefull.

    Tks again. Now its time to evolute, but im a little bit confusing if i test ccna security or i if i go trough ccnp….

    Yousif
    Congrats! You walk tall now – CCNA!!

    I just got done with a firewall project – back on the study bubble – I am not in a hurry as my employer may now be sending me to class anyway for ICND2. A week sitting in a class with some guy reading out of the book – This is not the way to go and everyone here knows this however as part of employment they will send me anyway. I will then HAVE to pass the exam in short order. The class will be brush up and I can focus on my weak points. Your question about the 32 block that is new was also seen by VASH when he scored his CCNA.
    I will have to build up my momentum again and will start drilling this again. I have no issue with retaining the knowledge and to your point, yes I can sit the exam now and take my chances however I don’t like to take chances and want the score the brass ring on the first sitting.

  23. few new questions onexam
    May 6th, 2011

    Endless thanks for 9Tut,I got my ccna 30 – 40% questions were new, but if you know your subject you can easily answer. Even if you don’t they aren’t worth a lot. Sims from this site will get you ccna if you know it very well. They just changed stuff, little bit but same stuff.

    9Tut THANKS A TRILLION

    hmeister, you are so right. i have to study and pass several practice exams thru school which are just worthless. but I have to do it. once I am done with that baloney I come here and use the VCE’s to start studying for real. no one would EVER pass with just what they teach.

  26. whoknows?
    May 6th, 2011

    Passed the ICND 2 with 916 just recently. there were several new questions, if you know your stuff you will get through them just fine; they mostly had to do with ICND 1 topics with switchport security. I missed a lot of questions that I realized I had gotten wrong after clicking next knowing full well that I couldn’t go back and fix them. Ohh well.

    Hmeister, Thank you and the community for all your help.

    I studied using the following materials:

    CBTNuggets with Jeremy Cioara (Simply Awesome and Enthusiastic Man)
    Wendell Odom ICND 1 & 2
    and a little bit of Cisco Academy.

    to be honest you have to just believe in yourself and be sure of your answers; that pretty much led me through the exam.

    I feel like in a sense that I don’t deserve this certification, mainly because I don’t have real life experience actually doing this work; I enjoy this kind of thinking involved; and that is why I am pursuing a job in the field currently to start doing this type of work.

    Good luck everyone!

    WHOKNOWS which SIMS you had on the exam?

  28. whoknows?
    May 6th, 2011

    I had VTP simulation and the OSPF simlet (NOT THE SIMULATION) at the end.

    to be frank I thought the exam went WAY to easy on me.

  29. fsl
    May 6th, 2011

    Weird. I got a better score than you did, but still thought the exam was very hard.

  30. Lyndon
    May 7th, 2011

    That is because all of you calculate your scores wrong. You would think with all the subnetting math you guys would be better at it. Remember, the scores go from 300 to 900. You all give yourselves credit for the missing 300 or 400 points. You have to remember there are only 600 points you can get plus the 300 you start with. You should give your actual score rather than trying to figure out a percentage. It is not correct.

  31. brent
    May 7th, 2011

    Good point, Lyndon. Plus anyone on here who claims to have scored a 900, or as they claim it “1,000” is flat out lying just to mess with you. If you really want to do the math, you only have to get about 84% to pass. But even that is not entirely accurate, since some questions are weighted more than others.

  34. Aizen
    May 10th, 2011

    I don’t understand this, is it an error ? Hmeister rev 27
    Exam B, question 10.
    Which VLSM mask will be best for network A
    Diagram shows network A – 66 hosts
    network B – 310 Hosts

    A) /25
    B) /26
    C) /27
    D) /28

    I said A, ( /25 ) the answer says D /28… but being VLSM the masks can vary from network to network, so 66 hosts is what you work with and that is /25 right?

    I may be going mad… but im confused right now πŸ™‚
    Aizen

  35. xallax
    May 10th, 2011

    you are right, best choice would be /25.

  40. ipassed
    May 11th, 2011

    The answer is A you are correct. If you build a chart out like this… you can see that /25 fits 128 host… where as 64 host total is not sufficient for the network

    192 224 240 248 252 254 255
    128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1
    25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32

    OK i give up… basically the 192 suppose to align with 64, and 26. 224 suppose to align with 32 and 27. This charge makes it easy for anyone to figure out the Subnet mask, number of HOST total and /#

    Ok firstly gonna write next monday not friday,

    Now a question, Hmeister Rev27, exam C , question 1

    Most efficient summery R1 can send R 2 etc

    * the routes attached to R1 as follows*
    172.1.4.0 /25
    172.1.4.128/25
    172.1.5.0 /24
    172.1.6.0 /24
    172.1.7.0 /24

    Answers
    A) 172.1.0.0 /22
    B) 172.4.1.0/24
    172.5.1.0/24
    172.6.1.0/24
    172.7.1.0/24
    C) 172.1.4.0 /22
    D) 172.1.0.0 /21

    I said D, but it says C is correct, Please check and see if im right, or wrong and explain please

    Aizen

  75. NN
    May 16th, 2011

    The answer is C.

    Obviously we already know the first two octets are the same in each subnet. The third octet is different so we change them to binary

    172.1.00000100
    172.1.00000100
    172.1.00000101
    172.1.00000110
    172.1.00000111

    Looking at that binary numbers of the third octet, we can see that the 0’s and 1’s match up to the 4 position so the subnet number is 172.1.00000100.00000000 = 172.1.4.0

    The prefix is /22 because the we know the first two octets are 8+8=16 since they are the same in all subnets. You then add the rest of the third octet that matches up in each subnet 000001 = 6. 8+8+6 = 22

    Tried my best to explain. Hope it makes sense.

  76. xallax
    May 16th, 2011

    stop thinking in 1s and 0s, damn it! we’re not machines.
    you need to summarize from 4.0 to 7.255, that means a block of 4.0 (convenient range, huh?)

    starts and 172.1.4.0, ends at 172.1.7.255. the mask we need is 255.255.252.0 (8+8+6+0 = 22 bits)

    answer: 172.1.4.0/22

    AH ok i see the error in my ways πŸ™‚

    thanx NN makes alot of sense, my mind was not in the summarization way of thinking, was like using subnetting logic… how you explained it is actually how i learnt it… just forgot it :/ scary

    and xallax how did you just know the mask is 255.255.255.252 ? I see the 8+6+6+0 but if you not using the binary method where did you get those figures?

    I understand it now, thank you both, just curious as to the method used by Xallax, how you got the mask ? would much appreciate a little more explanation on that part..

    Grr just when i thought i knew it all πŸ™‚ mad what you can forget well i got a week to make sure i know everything

    you need a block size of 4.0? you have 255.255 (that’s 8 bits and 8 more bits) and then you continue the subnet mask:
    the maximum number you can have in the subnet mask is 255, add 1 to it, you get 256, substract 4 out of it (this 4 comes from the block size), you get 252. now add 0 because anything that follows an incomplete bit range is… 0. always 0.
    let’s add it all up: 255.255 and 252 and 0. that’s 255.255.252.0

    now let’s learn those decimal/binary values so we dont have to always transform and multiply, add and subtract and all that.
    255 is 8 bits. why is that? because… 2^0+2^1+2^2+2^3+2^4+2^5+2^6+2^7 = 255.

    254 = … 7 bits. why? well… from 2^8 you subtract 1 bit, meaning you subtract 2 from that magic number of 256. 256 – 2 = 254

    252 = … 6 bits. you subtract 2^2 bits leaving only 6 to the subnet

    248 = … 5 bits. you subtract 2^3 bits leaving only 5 to the subnet
    and so on, and so forth.

    ******
    chart to remember, it’s not that hard:
    255 = 8 bits
    254 = 7 bits
    252 = 6 bits
    248 = 5 bits
    240 = 4 bits
    224 = 3 bits
    192 = 2 bits
    128 = 1 bit
    0 = … 0 bits

    those above are the bits used for the subnet mask. you can very easily figure the number of subnets you can get and the number of host on each subnet.

    ********

    it’s just elementary math mostly, that’s what subnetting is.

    question: what subnet would be best for a company that has 27 computers and wants to use a class C IP range?
    class C mask is 255.255.255.SUBNET_BITS
    27 is greater than 16, smaller than 32 (learn the first 10-12 powers of 2!!!). this means it would go perfectly with a subnet mask ending with 256-32=224.

    answer: 255.255.255.224

    how many hosts maximum? 30 (256-224=32, substract the subnet address and the broadcast: 32-2=30)
    how many subnets? 224 = 3 bits, 2^3=8 subnets.

    it took me 2 minutes to type it all down. anyone that took icnd1 would say that is way too slow. and it is. if i do it with pen and paper it takes me a few seconds. this is not bragging, this is what you must achieve if you want to beat the clock on the exam.

    ********

    question: class C ip, 97 hosts.
    subnet mask: 255.255.255.128
    maximum hosts? 126
    maximum subnets? 2.

    cisco equals modern internet. the internet is about doing things practical, not learning it from a book. but still, you must read before you practice…

    this post became kinda big, sorry πŸ™‚

    thank you for reading all that, now click this link and start practicing. after 30 minutes of doing this your subnetting speed will increase a lot.

    Thank you so much πŸ™‚
    and im a reader, so I really don’t mind long posts, that really helped get me back on track,

    and the link is brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! im reverse subnetting in average of 30 – 40 secs now after 30 mins of doing it πŸ™‚

    thanks alot xallax πŸ™‚ writing on monday πŸ™‚ after studying everything i kinda forgot summerization and trying to figure it out confused my subnetting but it’s all back πŸ™‚ and i have done and passed my incd1 πŸ™‚

    alotta knowledge going on in this head ^_^

    on monday you say…
    before my exam i did these:
    – watched ICND1 cbtnuggets videos. no messenger, no tv, no games. just cbtnuggets videos.
    – did vce tests. i went over almost all questions out there, mostly did ariel’s. and those were on the test too.
    – on the exam day went on a bench in the park and started writing down all the router commands i knew. all of them. as i did that i was also thinking on what they do, what are they good for.

    if you feel you are ready and you do an average of 950+ on ariel’s VCE then… go for it!

    as for that link… i came upon it sometime in January or February, saved it to my pc and used for 5-10 minutes just to relax. doing that simple math is relaxing, don’t you think?

    Hi everyone
    I need to run these lab questions on Packet tracer please help me where is the sources?

  85. xallax
    May 18th, 2011

    hey jamie
    it’s not an icnd1 discussion, i just told him what i did before i took icnd1.
    as for the subnetting posts above, those apply to icnd2 just as well.

    @Amin
    which questions?

  86. Aizen
    May 18th, 2011

    @ jamie yeah im doing my INCD2, it’s just prep methodology, I’ve watched all the Cbt nugget ICND2 vids ( twice now ),

    Done many VCE tests ( actually gonna be doing your ones today ),
    As for Ariel seen that name, but only done Hmeister exams, ( just occured to me that ariel may be for the INCD1 ? )

    You inspired me to go over the CBT vids again ( got 5 days till i write ) I’l do 10 vids a day,
    get through them in 3 days.

    and Yeah that reverse subnetting link is brilliant πŸ™‚ enjoy it alot πŸ™‚

    The VCE’s for INCD2 im gonna focus on YOUR VCE File, Does that cover it ? πŸ™‚
    but ok yeah in heavy study mode ^_^ phone’s not in use :P, pc games not being played :P.

    Wish me luck

    Can’t go over all the vids again, its too fresh πŸ˜› they just boring me to death, so went over all the notes i made while watching the vids, again. and going over everything in 9tut then will do tons of VCE’S

  88. xallax
    May 18th, 2011

    good luck on your exam, i’ll schedule mine after i’m done with my faculty exams. yes, ariel’s vce is for icnd1, i told you what i did before going for icnd1. why? because maybe you took that one, maybe you havent. just wanted to share the way i trained.

  89. jamie
    May 18th, 2011

    Thanks. I was just confused seeing Ariel’s VCE posted here. I find watching the videos over and over again too boring, as well. Going to concentrate on 9tut and hmeister’s VCE. Any other VCE come highly recommended here? Testing next week.

  90. can someone help me with cracking VCE file
    May 18th, 2011

    Please send the crack file. Thanks.

    Guys, just passed. I’m man enough to admit it was close. Had the VTP sim and the frame relay hotspot. The VTP sim threw me off when I went to apply the vtp domain name.

    I also had a drop and drop about DLCI and LMI, mainly about what they did and such. (User failed wrote about this item and I think it was the same one I had: “The drag and drop had PVC, DLCI, LMI, CIR, and about 4 other to drag over to 5 meanings.”)

    Most of the questions seemed to be on the VCE version 27. Thanks to hmeister and everyone else updating it.

    I did not use nuggets, but studied the VCE, and Test4Actual, which was accurate. I had also studied TestKing, but looking back did not seem to help although it contained quite a bit of good info. I also took a class.

    Before starting the exam, I wrote down the subnetting chart. Some will say that doing so is somewhat unnecessary or lower social class, but helped saving time for me at least. And time will probably be a factor.

    Good luck guys!

    On the vtp domain name (see above) .. it said the command was not available in the sim. So I must have been in a submenu or something. I logged out and back in and it let me use the command.

    One more thought: on the hotspots, when you finish an answer, you might need to click on topology to get the graphic back up. Do not be tempted to click the NEXT button. It will take you out of your hotspot exercise as if you were done with it.

  94. jamie
    May 19th, 2011

    roy, nice summery. so you thought the hmiester vce was relevant to your exam? were the ip addresses changed on your vtp sim? what do you mean by the vtp domain name threw you off? was the frame relay hotspot different in any way?

    thanks. congrats! a pass is a pass is a pass.

  95. roycalhoun
    May 19th, 2011

    @jamie, thanks! Yes the hmester vce was very relevant. Another user had mentioned that sections A and D seemed to be the most useful, so I concentrated on those.

    On the domain name, it said the vtp domain command was not available in the sim. So I must have been in a submenu or something. I logged out and back in and it then let me use the command.

    I did not memorize the ip numbers in the vtp sim but looking back now I believe they were the same.

    (A quick shout out to the genius who taught the class – Thanks Eric!)

    @jamie – the frame relay hotspot was a bit different in that my password was Console, and in maybe a few other ways (which 9tut warns about). But everything you need is brought up by show frame-relay map and sh run. Just slow down and reference that and you will do fine. This hotspot is very straight forward and nothing to worry about.

    @ Roy
    Well done mate πŸ™‚ yeah a pass is a pass πŸ˜›

    I’m writing on monday, nervous πŸ™‚ I’m impressed you managed this without the CBT nuggets, they are tremendously useful …

    as for the VTP domain name, it’s in global config ” Switch(config)#’ and the command it
    Switch(config)#vtp domain ( then the name)

    PVC = Permant Virtual Circuit ( the logical link between you and your destination through a cloud

    DLCI = Data Link Connection Identifier ( basically your mac address in frame relay networks, the address you send information to )

    LMI = Local Management Interface ( the protocal used to send information between you and your isp

    CIR = Committed information rate ( the least amount of bandwidth you are guaranteed )

    I know you’ve written the exam but this is just to help anyone else with those terms πŸ™‚
    No harm in useful info floating around.

    I do realise you got VTP right πŸ™‚ im just thinking out allowed ( typing πŸ˜› haha )

    @ Jamie you really should not be concerned at wanting to know if IP addresses change or anything of that matter, THEY WILL BE DIFFERENT πŸ™‚ You must understand what you doing and how to find addressed and then Reverse Engineer them to understand their subnetting

    Soon to be CCNA

    Xallax,
    Just going over your VCE, EXAM A
    an OSPF question
    OSPF is configured with it’s default CLASSFUL addressing
    WIth all routers and interface operational how many networks will be in the routing table of R1 as learned by OSPF

    The answer is 4 ?> you familiar with that question ?

    My misunderstanding lies in the idea I simply don’t get it ^_^ …

    Firstly if its CLASSFUL then 172.16.anything is class B and therefore 172.16.1.0 and 172.16.2.0 are both in the same network ? so how does that work ? I see they have /24 bit subnet masks which means they are DIFFERENT networks, but in the question the word Classful overrides that isn’t that so ?…

    2nd point the question says Learned by OSPF so I gather that excludeds connected networks ??

    Please have a look at that question if you need help finding that one let me know, only 20 Q’s in exam A but from what I described you should find it

    Much thanx in advance for your time
    Aizen
