[c-nsp] Current CCNA tests

[snort bsd]

Yeah. CCNA known for its numerous errors. Here is a great one:

What is the broadcasting address of 192.168.99.0/23?

I don't know what kind of binary tree CCNA using, but with that question, it must be something different (called CCNA tree?)

Hi 
there,

I 
completely 
agree 
- 
I 
have 
found 
numerous 
mistakes 
in 
the 
exams 
(BGP 
and
BCMSN). 
In 
some 
cases 
they 
were 
questions 
I 
had 
seen 
in 
exam 
preparation
material 
- 
and 
I 
got 
the 
questions 
wrong 
in 
the 
prep 
because 
the 
questions
were 
just 
totally 
whacked. 
However, 
in 
the 
exam 
I 
remembered 
the 
questions
when 
I 
saw 
them 
and 
I 
just 
chose 
the 
answer 
that 
the 
prep 
exam 
had 
claimed
was 
correct. 
I 
am 
pretty 
sure 
based 
on 
the 
mark 
I 
got 
in 
those 
sections 
that
they 
were 
marked 
'correct' 
too. 
I 
also 
have 
to 
admit 
that 
it 
kind 
of
disgusted 
me 
that 
I 
had 
to 
do 
this, 
but 
what 
else 
is 
one 
supposed 
to 
do?

Each 
time 
I 
found 
these 
I 
did 
the 
only 
thing 
available 
to 
me, 
I 
left 
a 
note
on 
the 
question 
that 
hopefully 
someone 
at 
cisco 
will 
see. 
Does 
anybody
actually 
read 
the 
feedback 
from 
the 
exams?

Regards,
Anton
