Course Overview
THIS COURSE HAS NOW REACHED END-OF-LIFE (EOL) EFFECTIVE APRIL 26, 2010. PLEASE REFER TO THE ROUTE CLASS IN THE COURSE CATALOGUE.
As a result of the revision to CCNP, the BSCI, BCMSN, COMP, ISCW and ONT exams will be reaching end of life and the last day to take those exams will be July 31, 2010. Based on the substantial overlap of test topics, passing scores achieved on BSCI, BCMSN and/or COMP will continue to be accepted for certification purposes as long as they remain valid--three years from the date passed. In contrast, ISCW and ONT will not be accepted towards CCNP certification after their retirement date. Beginning August 1, 2010, all new CCNP certifications will require a passing score on the new TSHOOT exam. These rules result in a variety of possible exam combinations for CCNP candidates, based on the timeframe for completing certification. You can visit Cisco.com to help identify the exam combination options.
Building Scalable Cisco Internetworks (BSCI) v3.0 is recommended advanced routing training for individuals seeking certification as a Cisco CCNP©_. BSCI instructs network administrators of medium-to-large network sites on the use of advanced IP addressing and routing in implementing scalability for Cisco routers that are connected to LANs and WANs. The BSCI v3.0 course has eight modules, with several lessons per module and numerous hands-on labs. The goal is to train network administrators to dramatically increase the number of routers and sites using these techniques instead of redesigning the network when additional sites or wiring configurations are added.
Target Audience
Network administrators and technicians responsible for implementing and troubleshooting complex routed network environments; Customers or channel resellers who are experienced with Cisco products or have a broad knowledge of the internetworking industry; Network technicians who are experienced with Cisco products and services
Network administrators responsible for implementing and managing medium-to-large business networks; Senior network support staff performing a help-desk role in a medium or enterprise-sized company that has internal network support escalation staff; Network support staff who design, implement, and troubleshoot Layer 3 connectivity issues
