If you wish to clear the CCIE Lab Exam, here are some tips for you to follow if you are going to study on your own for this examination though it is recommended, for you, to join some good training course for better results.
1. Meticulous Lab Training
You must do meticulous lab training before attempting for CCIE. The lab practice is what will make you learn the concepts as well as understand them. At least 5 to 6 hours of lab practice every day with proper training is essential so as to clear this examination. You are required to perform at least 500 hours of regular lab training if you want to clear CCIE Lab Examination. Once you have understood the concept then implement it; if you implemented it correctly, do it again. Do it repeatedly until you do it in the lowest amount of time possible.
2. Be Updated with Recent Information
It is important for the candidates to keep themselves updated when you are preparing for CCIE Certifications. CCIE exam version keeps changing time to time with all its topics and concepts. So, you must know which exam you should be preparing yourself for. For CCIE Lab Examinations, software needs, and Lab equipment are required to be the same. When you practice in your lab make sure that you have done practice on the right equipment.
3. Clear the Concepts
Networking is one such field where you cannot possibly force things up and be seated for the examination. This is because the whole networking written examination is theoretically based. The answer that you have crammed up might be incorrect even if there is just a slight change in the question. Also, cramming up the answers is going to be easy as well. The time taken in learning the same answers is almost the time it would take the same as understanding the exact concepts.
4. Strong Troubleshooting Skills are required
In each and every track of CCIE Certification, you are going to need to clear both CCIE Written and Lab examination to earn the certification. To clear this examination the candidates are needed to have strong troubleshooting skills. Whether it is R&S or Security; Collaboration or Wireless, in every examination, a network would be given to you and you would be needed to troubleshoot it. You should know from which source the packet started and where it would have to move to, you need to know how to debug the entire transmission. So, you are needed to be prepared for it.
5. Follow CCIE Blogs
You must follow some of the CCIE Blogs on the web. They would help you out in keeping yourself updated with the latest news of Networking like which course have been upgraded, which topics are removed or where can you find another book to learn CCIE.
6. Pre-Examination Preparation
There are some websites where you could take virtual exams before going for the real one. You can attempt for those virtual examinations before appearing for Cisco Certification. Performing simulation would be helping you to check your knowledge of Networking and the process of the exam. This way you could see how well you could perform in time test situations.
7. Improving Typing speed
Understand which hardware or software to practice on so that you can manage your time accordingly. For example, look forward to the web browser that you would be examined on. You are needed to practice the same. This would help you have to understand how much time one question can take and you can plan the other questions accordingly. Similarly, you are needed to practice on Desktop keyboards rather than Lab keyboards. This would be increasing your typing speed at the time of examination.
Though it will all depend on your hard work and persistence, I would recommend that you join some good training modules so as to ensure your success. I would advise you to join the SPOTO Club, for better results.
