cisco, new exam, it certification, network devicesCisco revises the ICND2 exam and training course updating it from version 2.0 to version 3.0 round the corner; to be precise, on September 24, 2016. A new exam available from Pearson VUE with the exam number 200-105 is a 90-minute, 45–55 query assessment that is associated with the CCNA Routing and Switching certification. This exam is intended for candidates with deep knowledge and professional level related to LAN switching technologies, IPv4 and IPv6 routing technologies, WAN technologies, infrastructure maintenance, and infrastructure services.
