How to obtain the CCIE Routing and Switching certification
Certification is obtained by passing two exams. 1. The CCIE R&S written exam is a two-hour qualification exam with 90-110 questions taken online at a Cisco authorized Pearson VUE testing center. The questions are a combination of multiple choice and more complex, interactive items that assess technical knowledge on topics such as IP, IP routing, bridging and switch-related technologies, and some equipment commands.2. The CCIE R&S lab Exam is an eight-hour, hands-on exam which requires you to configure and troubleshoot a series of complex networks to given specifications. Knowledge of troubleshooting is an important skill and candidates are expected to diagnose and solve issues as part of the CCIE lab exam. You will not configure end-user systems, but are responsible for all devices residing in the network (hubs, etc.).
Please note that a lab exam cannot be scheduled until you have passed the written exam.
Global Knowledge can provide the training required to attain both of these exams through a combination of Global Knowledge authored content and Cisco Leading Edge programs.
