Simulationexams.com A+ practice tests for MacThe current version of Cisco CCNA 200-125 is retiring on 23rd Feb 2020. Several other associate level exams, such as CCENT, CCDA, CCNA Security are also retiring along with CCNA. The new exam CCNA 200-301 will have completely revised syllabus with focus on hands-on experience and less coverage of TCP fundamentals.

It is recommended that those who are in the middle of preparation for CCNA 200-125 or those who had already completed CCENT, to finish CCNA before the deadline. Else, your CCENT certification would not be of any help to continue to CCNA 200-301.

The new syllabus doesn’t cover RIP, and BGP. More focus is put on broad spectrum of technologies including router IOS, network security, Cisco DNA, and WLC configuration and testing. You may download the practice tests for CCNA 200-125 or CCDA.

Wish you good luck!

Anand Software Launches Networking Labs using Cisco, Juniper and Other Devices

Anand Software and Training is happy to announce the launch of networking labs for Cisco, Juniper, and other network device vendors. These labs consist of real routers, switches, servers, and workstations. The labs would be helpful to candidates desirous of having hands-on experience using various vendor networks such as Cisco and Juniper. Labs for routing, network security, wireless, and voice technologies are available. Check out our website https://www.anandsoft.com for more information.

Though various simulators are available for such labs, the simulators are software only virtual labs and fall short of providing full-length experience that one gets using actual physical networks. Our labs are intended to fill the gap between what you learned using books/lab-manuals/simulators and actual physical labs.

The labs are useful not only for those preparing for certifications also those intending to learn networking and pursue networking path.

Good luck!
