640-801 Cisco Certification

[Salton]

Friends I want to do courses CCNA1, CCNA2, CCNA3, CCNA4, CCNP1 and am currently doing ccnp4. I am certified and I would think it would help me to get the certification of 640-801, what are your views on trying testking for that.

You are not required to do CCNP CCNA essentially. If you know concepts of networks and telecommunication then it does not mind necessary to do CCNA and such certificate if you have a graduate degree.

CCNA is like saying technical network supervisor.

CCNP is for professionals.

Friends with all due respect it deserves, but not so as you say. Now there is a requirement to enter CCNP, you must be CCNA certified.

I doubt if this has been clarified in the courses that I'm even seeing that this CCNA certification, I am currently in CCNA3 even told me that CCNP valid as if it were an update to be CCNA certified to 3 years each.
