Dear all,
You may remember me from when I posted the ICND1 notes. Since then, I saw many people use it, and that drove me to do the same for ICND2!
So here I present to you, my ICND2 Study Notes!! And futher down the post, I will tell you where to find my ICND1 notes.
Also, if you find these notes helpful, please support me at https://www.patreon.com/ccna4life!
37-page Summary Notes: I have compiled all knowledge I have gained from the ICND2 Offical Cert Guide and placed them all in this condensed note. This note is organised into the exam topics, which will make reviewing very easy! I recommend you look over these notes the week before the exam, or you could just have a look any time!
8-page Configuration Checklist: This configuration checklist has all the configuration steps and commands required in the ICND2 exam. Again, it is organised into the configuration exam topics for easier review and study!
11-page Verification Checklist: This verification checklist covers pretty much all verification commands that you are required to know for your ICND2 exam. It lists details of what each command will display, and I guarantee, Cisco will surely want you to know what some of the commands will display in their output.
Both checklists can be found here: https://bit.ly/2YjZZKM
ICND1
60-page Summary Notes: Similar to how my ICND2 notes are structured, these 60 pages worth of notes have the most important information I've learned from my studies. They are structured into the exam topics for easier review and study!
Configuration Checklist and Verification Checklist: the configuration checklist has all of the configuration steps and command required in the ICND1 exam, and it is organised into the configuration exam topics. The verification checklist includes all verification commands I've learnt during my studies, and a detailed list of what each command displays.
Now this is not all, I will, over time, create 'Above and Beyond' notes, where I will cover everything that is not within the range of knowledge that can be obtained from the Offical Cert Guide. Also, I am working on a Udemy practice exam, so stay tuned for a discount code!
All of my future notes will be able to be found at https://twitter.com/ccna4life!
I want to say 'thank you' to everyone who have supported me during this 4-month long CCNA journey. From my school friends to members of the Cisco Study Group Discord Server, I have received so much encouragement!

'More Cisco!'

In 2016, Cisco's most popular credential finally got an update. In addition to updating exam numbers from version 2.0 to 3.0, the company added some new topics to the CCNA exams and swept away some old ones.
The usual slate of exams for CCNA: Routing and Switching requires taking either two ICND (Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices) exams, or the so-called composite exam that essentially runs students through both ICND1 and ICND2 in a single sitting. Unsurprisingly, the composite exam is called CCNA.
Cisco is maintaining these exam options and the new CCNA exam numbers are as follows (links to exam pages also provided):

Here are more details on what the new CCNA exams cover.
ICND1 Exam Changes
Exam topics moved or removed:
- Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) topics have beem moved to ICND2, because the Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is used to acquaint CCENT candidates with IP routing protocols
- Dual IPv4/IPv6 stack coverage has been removed owing to the plethora of transition technologies now in use
- Cisco Express Forwarding (CEF) has been removed
Exam topics added:
- Infrastructure components and impact of their interactions for Firewalls, Access Points, and Wireless Controllers
- Collapsed Core architecture vs. three-tier architectures
- How to configure and verify IPv6 Stateless Address Auto Configuration (SLAAC)
- Anycast added to IPv6 addressing types covered
- Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) added to complement Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP)
- RIPv2 for IPv4 serves as primary focus for routing protocols
- DNS and DHCP related connectivity issues
- Syslog message logging for device monitoring
- Backing up and restoring device configurations
ICND2 Exam Changes
Exam topics removed:
- Frame Relay and Serial WAN technology coverage is dropped
- VRRP and GLBP removed from First Hop Redundancy Protocols (only HSRP remains)
Exam topics added:
- Dual- vs. single-homed Intelligent WAN topology options
- External BGP (eBGP) as used to connect Enterprise branches
- VPN topics now include DMVPN, Site-to-Site VPN, and Client VPN technologies in common Enterprise use
- How cloud resources are used in enterprise network archtitectures, including how cloud services affect network traffic paths and flows, common virtualized services and how they coexist with legacy infrastructure
- Basics of virtual network infrastructure (NFV)
- Awareness of programmable, software-defined network (SDN) architectures, including separation of control and data planes, and how a controller functions and communicates
- Using Path Trace application for ACLs
- Understanding QoS concepts as they related to marking, shaping and policing mechanisms for congestion management
Of course, because CCNA v3.0 combines coverage for both ICND1 and ICND2 into a single exam, it incorporates all of these changes.
