So….there have been several “rumors” floating around on some of the CCIE-focused communities relating to the CCIE R&S lab….I thought I’d post the stuff I’ve heard from a reliable source connected to the CCIE team and Cisco’s learning organization.

(*Note: None of this stuff has been confirmed or announced by Cisco – again, it’s just “buzz” right now, but I am pretty confident that it’s legitimate info.)

Supposedly – in early May – Cisco will be announcing a change to the CCIE R&S lab exam. This change will consist of the additions of MPLS and Layer 3 VPN. There will also be an extensive Troubleshooting portion added to the lab exam. These changes are expected to make up 30% of the lab – and be effective beginning in October 2009.  

As you can guess – we’re going to stay on top of this – and have already started making updates to our material(s). We’ll keep an eye on Cisco’s public site and make sure that our clients are informed of any changes if / when they are “officially” announced by Cisco.

Thanks – Wayne
