CCIE Security Written Pre-Qualification Exam

I have passed my CCIE Security Written Exam recently. It requires extensive preparation and advanced level hands on experience on Cisco Security Appliances, Modules and Security Applications.

Furthermore, it requires deep understanding of Security and IP Protocols is also required. Good Handon experience and understanding on Cisco CS-MARS, NAC Appliances, AAA Servers, CSA etc is also essential.

This exam is a little different because, as because, several routing and switching topics are also included, so you must have good understanding of popular routing protocols and their security features.

I have used for following books for preparing for this exam:

1. Cisco Press - Cisco ASA All-In-One Firewall, IPS And VPN Adaptive Security Appliance
2. Cisco Press – CCIE Security Exam Certification Study Guide – 2nd Edition

3. Cisco Press – CCIE Security Quick Reference Sheet
