As a part of CCIE Certification Roadmap , CCIE Enterprise Infrastructure Practical Exam will come into effect from 20th September 2023
Introduction – CCIE Enterprise v1.0 has undergone a massive overhaul, with new features and changes that will affect the way the certification is administered. This article describes some of the major changes to the CCIE Enterprise v1.0 exam and how they will affect existing and future CCIE holders. Topics discussed include changes to the exam structure, new modules, and updated skillsets required for the certification.
The Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert (CCIE) Enterprise Certification is undergoing a major change with the introduction of the new CCIE El v1.1 exam.
Last date to take CCIE Enterprise v1.0 attempt is 19th September 2023
Topics included in CCIE Enterprise Infrastructure v1.1 Practical Exam
With this update, Cisco has included several new topics to the exam, such as identification of multi-chassis EtherChannels, Introduction of Route Leaking between Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) using route maps and VASI – VRF Aware Software Infrastructure Interfaces (VASI), Layer 3 Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) support for OSPFv3 address family, new support for OSPF Loop-Free Alternate.
Also the certification has undergone a major change with two new additions to its requirements: static point-to-point GRE tunnels and YAML/Jinja.
The addition of these two technologies to the CCIE Enterprise curriculum will require enterprise engineers to have knowledge of both static point-to-point GRE tunneling and YAML/Jinja. This will allow them to effectively configure tunneled connections between networks securely and rapidly, as well as manipulate data efficiently in a more automated fashion via YAML/Jinja files.
These change brings an exciting opportunity for those pursuing the CCIE Enterprise certification, as they can gain valuable skills that are essential for today’s world of rapid data manipulation and automation.
These changes reflect the need to stay up-to-date with industry standards and ensure that CCIE Enterprise certified professionals are able to deploy modern network infrastructures.
This addition sets an even higher standard for CCIE Enterprise candidates and requires them to have a greater understanding of advanced topics in order to succeed in the exam.
Topics excluded from Practical Exam
The Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert (CCIE) Enterprise certification is undergoing a big change with the removal of some topics from its syllabus.
Some of these changes have been welcomed with open arms by many professionals, as they have removed some topics that many found challenging to master.
The biggest change was the removal of two topics from the CCIE Enterprise syllabus: 1.1.C VLAN database & VTP and 1.3.d EIGRP Fast convergence requirements & 1.3.f EIGRP IP FRR. This marks a significant shift in the focus for preparation for this certification, as it reduces the amount of time needed to study these particular topics and instead allows more focus on other areas such as automation and emerging technologies like SD-WAN and DevOps related concepts .
This change includes the removal of topics such as BGP Multipath and Add-Path, DMVPN FlexVPN and the interaction with Cisco IOS XE API.
One of the topics that has been removed is Deploy and Verify Model-Driven Telemetry. This topic was previously included in section 5.3.d of the CCIE Enterprise curriculum, which focused on “Implementing Network Programmability”.
The CCIE Enterprise certification covers a wide variety of topics related to infrastructure and networking technologies, so these changes are significant for those who plan to take the exam in the near future. These removed topics have been replaced with new information on emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, software-defined networks and cloud computing.
