CCIE R&S Certification v4.0

Effective from today:- October 19, 2009 Cisco CCIE® Routing and Switching v4.0 certification exams are now available in all VUE testing locations worldwide. I think lot of others like me were thinking about the 19 October who wish to get their CCIE # in R&S. Yes and from today our journey is specifically going to start on CCIE R&S version 4.

The competencies required for CCIE R&S v4.0 certification can be found on the Cisco Learning Network under CCIE R&S v4.0 written exam topics and CCIE R&S v4.0 lab exam topics in the CCIE R&S section of the site.

Both the written and lab exams have been refreshed with new questions covering MPLS and VPN networking. The written exam includes new scenario-based questions. The lab exam now requires hands-on troubleshooting of preconfigured networks, in addition to configuration. Exam duration and pricing will remain the same, with the two-hour written exam at USD $350.00 and the eight-hour lab at USD $1400.00
