INE's CCIE Service Provider Lab Workbook Volume I contains hands-on individually focused labs that present topics in an easy to follow, goal-oriented step-by-step approach. The labs are used to isolate topics on their own allowing candidates to see firsthand the various ways to configure each technology, and what the specific implications of a configuration are. By understanding these fundamental operations of the protocols candidates will be able to predict advanced and sometimes subtle interactions when the various technologies are configured together.

CCIE Service Provider Lab Workbook Volume II

Volume II - Full Scale Practice Labs - is a self-paced product designed to be used as a supplement to other self-paced and instructor-led training materials in preparation for Cisco Systems' CCIE Service Provider Lab Exam.

INE's CCIE Service Provider Lab Workbook Volume II consists of 10 full-scale lab scenarios designed from the ground up based on Cisco Systems' newest specification for the CCIE Service Provider Lab Exam. The labs contained in the workbook are designed to simulate the actual CCIE Service Provider Lab Exam and at the same time illustrate the principles behind the technologies which it covers.

CCIE Service Provider Lab Breakdowns Class-on-Demand

INE's CCIE Service Provider Lab Breakdowns Class-on-Demand are series of lectures by Brian McGahan (CCIE# 8593) explaining the specifics and rationale behind the complex solutions for our full-scale CCIE Service Provider Lab Workbook Volume II scenarios. The labs contained in CCIE Service Provider Lab Workbook Volume II are designed to simulate the actual CCIE Service Provider Lab Exam and at the same time illustrate the principles behind the technologies which they cover. Hence, this series will not only help understand "why" and "how", but also enable CCIE candidates to implement the knowledge with similar problems during the CCIE Lab Exam.

The lab breakdowns are the perfect complementary product to our CCIE Service Provider Lab Workbook Volume II and was developed due to many requests from our CCIE candidates searching for a 'step-by-step' solutions explanation.

Hisham El-Ezaby - CCIE #21190

Hello, I have passed my SP lab exam 10 days ago from my first attempt. I wanted to thank the whole IE team for their great contribution and help. I have used your two volume workbooks + CoD videos and around 75 online RACK sessions. I would like to give special thanks to the two Brians and Petr , those guys are really marvelous. They have authored a few lab scenarios in volume two lab workbook which are brilliant. They are more challenging than the actual lab exam. I will certainly consider IE products in any new CCIE plans. Thank you very much.
