    Is the Cisco Desgn v2.1 review modules currently at cisco website (https://learningnetwork.cisco.com/docs/DOC-11089) will help me pass this exam???

    It looks completely different from the dumps. and seems will confuse me more.

    I think it is better to focus myself in reviewing Leadpass, acutaltest, plust the corrections from dstut and examcollections.

    My exam is on July 20, 2012

    To those that failed, sorry and hope you nail it next time. I’m curious what dumps did you use? Were they the latest from Lead2Pass, or some other source?

  13. samba
    July 18th, 2012

    passed with 920!! about 2 new DD , no question about wireless , new questions about datacenter , Thankx to all the team , juste read the official cert guide et the lead2pass dumps.
    Thankx to all the dstut , let ‘s now move to the CCNP !!!!!!!

    Hi Guys I just passed today with 927, thanks dstut. I used official cert guide 640-863 and 640-864 and lead2pass dumps plus checked some nuggets videos and also compared the questions which were not clear here and on different forums. make sure to check all drag and drops (i had one with data-center virtualization). That’s all the best of luck to you who are planning to attempt.

    is there any simulation in ccda exam??

  18. Passed
    July 23rd, 2012

    Passed with 941/1000 on Friday.

    LOTS of D&Ds so make sure you learn these – dstut has them all but be careful, the exam D&Ds had some extra/different boxes too!

    Data centres are the hot topic right now so use the Official Cert Guide for 640-864 so learn plus questions from VCE and AIO Test King.

    For the questions where the answers are argued, you just have to accept, some answers just aren’t known!

  19. Swap
    July 24th, 2012

    How many questions are thr in exam ??

  20. Anon
    July 25th, 2012

    I recall questions 1 and 5 were on the exam …as well as many others. I’m guessing I had at least ten D &Ds, so know them! Also, there were several multiple choice questions regarding virtualization, and one question regarding the step order of characterizing a network. Another important note…the multiple choices are mixed up, they don’t match the brain dumps. Bottom line–read the Ciscopress 640-864 book, study your azzes off, don’t rely on the dumps alone and you’ll be fine. Good luck, now on to more of the same:-)

  21. Anon
    July 25th, 2012

    Swap–there are 55 questions on the exam…you’re given 75 minutes.

    I passed the exam with 927, I got all D&D question from this site so thank you! There are also a few new question, I’ve got the following three posted by master:

    Which three modules would typically utilize public IPv4 addressing ?
    a) Branch Data Center
    b) Access
    c) Internet connectivity
    d) Core
    e) Data Center
    f) E-commerce
    g) Remote Access/VPN
    h) WAN/MAN
    i) Distribution
    j) Branch

    My Answer is CFG

    D&D.

    VLANs and VSANs
    Cisco Unified Computing system
    Cisco VN-link technologies,including the Nexus 1000V virtual switch for VMware ESX
    VSAN,virtual device contents, and unified fabric

    Virtual machine visibility and policy control
    * Cisco VN-link technologies,including the Nexus 1000V virtual switch for VMware ESX
    simplified data center infrastructure and TCO
    * VSAN,virtual device contents, and unified fabric
    Network,compute, and virtualization resources physically combined to deliver on optimized end-to-end virtualized environment
    * VSAN,virtual device contents, and unified fabric
    Physical networks and equipment set
    * VLANs and VSANs

    The evolution of the Data Center is best represented by the 3.0 architecture component of virtualization. Which of the following is not an example of the virtualization taking place in the Data Center ?
    a) VLANs and VSANs provide for virtualized LAN and SAN connectivity, separating physical networks and equipment into virtual entities.
    b) Virtual machines that run on application within the client operating system, is future virtualized and running on common hardware.
    c) Storage devices virtualized into Storage pools, and network devices are virtualized using device contexts
    d) virtualized media access utilizing Fibre Channel over Ethernet.

    My Answer is B, it talks about Virtual Machine running on client operating system that *shouldn’t* be part of a Data Center

    Good luck to all!

    I have a question about the Exam? For the short iicitifneatdon terms that we must know, are they Reconstruction, Westward Expansion, Rise of big business, Rise of Labor Unions, Rise of Urban America, Gilded Age, etc? Or is it the terms that are listed for example Lincoln’s 10% Plan, Wade-ad‐Davis Bill, “40 Acres and a Mule,” Freedmen’s Bureau, Fourteenth Amendment, Radical Reconstruction, Battle of Canal Street, Compromise of 1877 that we have to study?

    Passed today with 927…this was no walk in the park. There are a few new D&D along with some new questions. Sorry I can’t recall to share, my mind is still spinning.

    This site is still very valid but additional study is strongly advised. I also used official Cisco CCDA book for exam 640-864 also vce lead2pass.640-864.v2012-04-29.261q.

    Stay commited…

    Hi, I took the exam yesterday and passed with 897. Only 2 DnD were not on this site and 90% of the questions were on the Lead2Pass from 04-2012. I used the CCDA 640-864 Official Cert Guide (4th Edition) to study (after I failed the exam with the Designing for Cisco Internetwork Solutions (DESGN) course). Thank you guys for the support, you’ve been a greet help. Up to ARCH now.

  41. ABC
    August 25th, 2012

    The enterprise campus core layer has requirements that are unique from the distribution and access layers. Which of the following is true about the core layer?

    A) The core layer provides convergence using Layer 2 and Layer 3 services and features.
    B) The core layer provides high availability to support the distribution layer connections to the enterprise edge.
    C) The campus core layer is optional.
    D) The core layer requires high performance to manage the traffic policing across the backbone.

    what is the correct answer plz

  42. Axe
    August 26th, 2012

    To ABC

    for your question C should be correct answer. !

  43. Axe
    August 26th, 2012

    A and D should be wrong for sure (traffic policy feature should be implement on Distribute layer)

    you can check official cisco book 640-864 page 48 for more details

  44. ABC
    August 27th, 2012

    thank you Axe for your support

    yeah you are totally right concerning the second question (A and D are wrong), but for some people B is the correct answer and for some other C is the correct answer. so i am really confused

    can anyone inform us what is the correct answer and why

  45. ABC
    August 27th, 2012

    what is the correct answer to the following question:

    Which statement identifies a benefit obtained when using a top-down network design plan?

    A. allows quick responses to design requests
    B. facilitates design based on previous experience
    C. incorporates customer organizational requirements
    D. is less time-consuming than using a bottom-up approach
    E. provides a more detailed picture of the desired network

    Hi All,

    Can any one please share with me the link to download CCDA 640-864 Official Cert Guide, 4th Edition?

    D. is less time-consuming than using a bottom-up approach
    E. provides a more detailed picture of the desired network

    C is answer

    A,B,C is wrong
    for E it should be “big picture” instead detail picture

  48. Axe_c
    August 29th, 2012

    for ABC August 25th, 2012 question

    Can anyone inform me what is the correct answer to the following question

    when designing using the Cisco enterprise architecture, in which enterprise campus layer do the enterprise edge and enterprise WAN modules establish their connection?

    A- Building Access
    B- Building Distribution
    C- Campus Core
    D- Enterprise Branch
    E- Enterprise Data Center

    I am realy confused and i need some explanation to the correct answer
    thank you in advance

    I check in CCDA 640-864 Official Cert Guide, 4th Edition last night (I forgot which page but I I take a photo on mobile)

    In Figure 2-5 “cisco enterprise Architecture Model”

    it look like “Campus core layer” in Enterprise Campus have connection to “Enterprise WAN layer” in Enterprise Edge

    anyway have someone tell B- Building Distribution is answer

    but I choose to believe book so Campus core is correct answer for me

  49. Axe_c
    August 29th, 2012

    I found diagram that I mention

    https://www.dstut.com/wan-design

    check question 3

    actually it same question !
