Join Brian Dennis (CCIE #2210) and Brian McGahan (CCIE #8593) in Reno, Nevada for an intense, 5 day CCIE Routing & Switching Bootcamp. Combining the incredibly detailed and well-structured lectures of our Advanced Technologies R&S CCIE Class with the realistic and difficult CCIE Mock Lab Workshop, students will spend 12+ hours each day studying, learning, and practicing hands-on with lab equipment as they learn what it takes to become a Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert.

Intended Audience

CCIE Routing & Switching lab candidates who are within two months of their lab exam.  Because this is an advanced Bootcamp, introductory material will not be covered. Students are expected to have attended the Advanced Technologies Class Online or watched the Advanced Technologies Class-on-Demand along with having completed at least the first five IEWB-RS-VOL2 labs prior to attending.

This class will also benefit CCIE candidates who may have attempted the actual CCIE Lab Exam without passing and feel they need to learn a more advanced and structured approach to CCIE Lab strategy. Candidates can greatly enhance their knowledge and understanding of such advanced topics as IGP Redistribution, BGP, IPv6, and QoS before attempting the Lab again.

To ensure each student receives the attention needed, the Bootcamp is taught by the most highly certified team of CCIE instructors, Brian Dennis, CCIE #2210 (R&S/ ISP Dial/ Security/ Service Provider) and Brian McGahan, CCIE #8593 (R&S/ Security/ Service Provider). 

Overview

Internetwork Expert's CCIE Routing & Switching 5 Day Bootcamp (IEBC-RS-5D) is a one-week live Instructor-led class series delivered live at our CCIE training center in Reno, Nevada, as well as through our state-of-the-art online classroom. This class is part lecture part hands-on, and focuses both on developing a structured approach to CCIE Lab strategy and advanced hands-on scenarios.  Students will each have access to a dedicated rack of Cisco equipment that consists of six Cisco routers, two Catalyst 3550's, and two Catalyst 3560's.

The CCIE Lab strategy portion of class covers topics such as what to expect the day of your lab, how to distinguish between Layer 2 and Layer 3 topologies, how to prioritize tasks, how to build and verify the network, how to manage your time, and how to track your progress as the instructors walk you step-by-step through various CCIE Lab scenarios.

During the first three days of the hands-on portion of class students will be provided with advanced, technology-focused scenarios not found in any of our other product lines.  Students will spend half of their time during these days working LIVE on the equipment configuring these scenarios and the other half with the instructors walking through the configurations as well as answering any technology specific questions.

For the fourth day of hands-on, students will be provided with a unique full-scale 8-hour lab scenario to configure.  The following day this scenario will be reviewed step-by-step with the instructors and detailed explanations will be provided about the technologies covered, interpretations of the questions, and common mistakes the students have made with relation to each topic.
