ICND1, the first CCNA exam, is now the only exam that IT pros need to take before pursuing the specialized CCNA exam for voice, security or wireless. Does this change give IT pros the right foundation for these specialized exams?
Jeremy Cioara: Yes, it does now give them what they need for all of the CCNA specialties. The way that's possible is that Cisco, with their latest CCNA revision, has moved a ton of information from what used to be ICND2 into ICND1. So now you pretty much have a massive certification exam with a massive amount of material that someone has to learn, but once they do get it, they will have essentially everything they need to progress in any one of the specialties.
What has been added to the updated ICND1 exam and why?
Cioara: The big topics that have been added -- and these were the ones that were missing and are needed to prepare people for all those specialties -- are virtual LANS (VLANS), subnetting, network address translation and access control switches. So among those four major topics -- combined with IPv6, the next version of the TCP IP protocol -- this gives everybody the foundation they need, but it also increases the amount of information in ICND1 in a major way.
