Introduction
Volume I - Advanced Technology Labs is the hands on practice companion to the Advanced Technologies Class, and is the first step in CCIE lab preparation. Each lab is designed to walk you through the technology, and provide in depth explanations of the necessary configurations.
CCIE R&S Lab Workbook Volume I consists of nearly 600 (six hundred!) hands-on individually focused advanced technology labs that present topics in an easy to follow, goal-oriented step-by-step approach. Every scenario features detailed breakdowns and thorough verifications to assist you in getting 100% understanding of the particular technology. By isolating each topic on its own you are able to see, firsthand, the various ways to configure each technology. By understanding these fundamental technologies, you will then be able to predict advanced and sometimes subtle interactions when configuring multiple technologies together.
Update Policy
New labs are continuously added as part of our CCIE RS 4.0 approach to our products. All material is kept up to date, and is always updated with additional material to ensure you have every resource available to you. These labs explore each of the fundamental technologies covered in the CCIE R&S Lab exam. Each of these new labs will be made available electronically and free of charge to customers who have purchased previous versions of Lab Workbook Volume I. This method ensures that the material covered in this Lab Workbook is as up-to-date as possible with the current CCIE R&S Lab exam specification.
Authors
The workbook has been designed and supported by a team of highly-skilled and industry recognized CCIE instructors, each having many years of in-production and training experience. In short, our instructor names speak for themselves!

It has been a wonderful trip rewarded by my R&S CCIE pass first shot on March 11th in Dubai, I have to say it hasn't been possible without your COD, Vol I, Vol II in particular and the rest of your product lines in general which I bought them all. The COD is a master piece that I have watched over and over and made tons of notes that helped me master the technologies and not merely configuration. I'd recommend your COD or All.
Regards,
I have passed my CCIE R&S exam in Brussels on my first attempt.I can say that your products were my best friends during my study.I am very happy and excited.You are growing true Internetwork Experts. I used your Advanced Technologies Class on Demandm ,Workbook Vol1,Vol2,Vol3,Rack Rentals,Bootcamp Class on Demand,a nd every Mock Labs.
Every CCIE candidate should buy these products.My CCIE level about %20 before I used your products.At the end of the Mock Labs My level was %90,and I knew that I was going to pass.I learned lots of things from Advanced Technologies Class.Not only for the exam but also for the real world .It was a wonderful journey took about 2 years for me.Of course I am going to choose IE again in my SP
track.
Many many thanks to every team ,but especially to Brian Dennis and
Brian McGahan for great teaching.
I did my written exam in July 2007 but i had to take a break to study for a linux certification so i didn't start studying for my CCIE labs until 2008 January.
My first four months of studies were with IE COD and IE volume 1, Then i attended boot camp in Dubai which was a real eye opener for me.Started work with the workbooks and for my full labs i used IE vol 2.
I will like to use this opportunity to thank all those who have been helpful to me in my journey my class mates in Narbik bootcamp (Sadki, Pitt, Vignesh, Femi, Dawood, george, Badal, yap, dapasina) , I want to thank narbik for the wonderfull bootcamp and support. Thank all u guys that have been answering my questions in GS Scott moris, the other Scott,Jared, e.t.c u guys are the best. To my study partners in Nigeria,i wish u all the best especially with the mobile center comming up soon in Lagos Nigeria.U guys will come good.
This are the list of materials i Used:
1.Narbiks Soup and Nuts.
2.Narbiks Advanced Routing and Switching Workbook.(5 volumes)
3.IE COD.
4.IE vol 1
5.IE vol 2.
6.Scotts Moris audio lectures.Hope there is one for SP.
As for the open ended question, I don't think u need to prepare any differently. It's just a way of checking your level of prep .Easy questions really but watch the wordings though may also want to know that you are only allowed to fail a maximum of one.
I will have to hibernate now for a month. Can't wait to start reading something else.SP.
8 months using your workbooks (Volume I, II & III) and indeed these are great stuff to help you prepare for the real lab. All the content are excellent from the 4 hours lab focused on developing your speed and accuracy at the Core technologies to the 8 hours full lab on which I had identified my weaknesses. CCIE was a great journey and I am looking forward on getting another one (SP) using again your materials. Thanks and more power to the IE team!
I'm very happy about my investment on Internetwork Expert. I used the self-paced program. I watch the COD 2 times. also I was very lucky, 3 days before my exam the VOL1 Ver 5 for IP services and system management released. its a real GEM and is a MUST.
The other special unique specification of Internetwork Expert is its people. the people whom take care of students, especially Mr Anthony who helped me a lot.
Internetwork expert was recommended to me by a friend and I recommend to everyone who would like to get it in the first attempt.
I passed my CCIE R&S lab at my second attempt yesterday in Sydney.
A BIG THANK-YOU to 2xBrians, Scott and Petr and all the team. You and your products (CoD, Workbooks, Mock Labs) are simply THE BEST.
The CoD and Workbook Vol1 really give me understanding of technologies. Vol3 is a great resource to practice core technologies, and to improve my speed. I listened/practiced them multiple times! I would like to take this opportunity to personally thank Scott and Petr for your help answering questions I posted on mailing list as well.
I would definitely recommend IE products to all my friends who would like to pursuit CCIE certifications.
The Lab Workbooks helped me understand and learn new subjects and overall I could not have done it without them. Thank you.
and R&S Mock Labs to check if I am ready on not.
Happy to let you know that I passed my CCIE R&S lab yesterday at Bangalore.
I had used your COD, R&Sv4.1's Vol I, II , III and Blog, extensively. The content is excellent and very reasonably priced. Thanks for upholding such quality, consistently.
I have no difficulty recommending your material, or using it for my future studies.
I am very pleased to let you know that I finally passed my CCIE R&S exam in Sydney on December 18, 2008.
I have been using your R&S Lab Workbook Volume II & III extensively in my preparations and purchased four of your Mock Labs. All of your products I have been using are of excellent quality and have proven to be instrumental in obtaining my CCIE certification!
So, once again a BIG
Thank You to the IE team!
Many thanks.
I want to inform you that I've passed the R&S lab exam on friday 6 feb on my first attempt.
I used IE Volume 1, Volume 2, Mock labs, Poly labs, Rack rentals and dynamips.
I started to prepare for the lab on January 2007 and 3 weeks before my lab I prepared 12-13 hours/day( doing labs, reading doccd and watching video materials at home without any pressure or disturbance).
I considered the lab at a rate of 7.5- 8 comparing with the difficulty of the IE Labs.
2 of the Open Ended questions was not so easy and made me think verry carefully about what they want from me and the other 2 questions were verry easy if you know the staff.
The diagrams from IE are very nice comparing with the diagrams from lab and I make my own diagram with colours/pencils.
I finished the lab in 5 hours and 30 minutes and I had enogh time to recheck all tasks twice and I found two faults and I corrected them.
I want to say that IE COD materials were great and helped me a lot(I watched 4-5 times all materials) .
I've done VOL2 1-20 labs 3 times (2 times using dynamips and one time using IE Rack Rentals) ,Mock Labs 1-7 -2 times (the average score was between 80-90 %) and Vol1.v5 1 time using dynamips and read it 2 more times.
I used also Open Lecture series (Video Materials) -watched them one time.
I could't made it for the first time without IE materials.
expert products (Vol1 and Vol2) helped me a lot in getting it on my
first attempt. Volume 5 is an excellent product eventhough only a
part of it was available during January-2009.
I have been using your workbook labs (volume I,II,III) during my preparation for the last 6 months and here we go - success! I will be continuing using your products for other CCIE tracks.
