TSHOOT - Troubleshooting and Maintaining Cisco IP Networks v1.0

In this course, preparing for the Cisco TSHOOT exam (# 642-832), you will acquire the skills necessary to maintain complex network environment and to diagnose and resolve network problems quickly and effectively. You will learn how to troubleshoot and maintain particular technologies, and learn aspects of procedural and organizational processes and maintenance troubleshooting.

Can practice skills and reinforce concepts use by making them in a controlled environment. In fact, you spend half the course of the execution of practical work with the trouble ticket. At the end of the course, we have developed a set of tools and best practices that you can take back to your organization.

The TSHOOT exam is different from most. Instead of a multiple choice format, 36 of the questions relate to a particular problem situation. Included with this course is our exam preparation guide only, with a detailed explanation of the unique format TSHOOT test problem scenarios over 12 samples each with three questions to help you prepare.



A Global Knowledge Exclusive: Bonus Lab Credits

You'll receive 10 extra e-Lab credits (good for 30 days) to review a topic after class, refine your skills, or get in extra practice-whatever lab activities complete your training.

  • Our CCNP Certification Prep Kit combines the three CCNP classes (ROUTE, SWITCH, and TSHOOT) and three exam vouchers into one high-value, low-price package. Get more details about our CCNP Prep Kit.
