Cisco Certified Design Associate (CCDA) Enterprise environments require networks designed for performance, availability, and scalability with the flexibility to meet rapidly evolving demands. To meet these challenges head on, skilled IT professionals are needed with up-to-date, fundamental network design skills. For network design engineers, system engineers, and sales engineers and individuals looking to build and validate Cisco network design fundamental knowledge the Cisco CCDA certification program focuses on design methodologies and objectives, addressing and routing protocols, and network expansion considerations within basic campus, data center, security, voice, and wireless networks.
This course presents a structured and modular approach to designing networks that are scalable, resilient, and have well-defined failure domains. Course discusses routing and switching design of Campus and Enterprise networks in detail. Data center, wireless networking, and real-time traffic infrastructure are introduced and their effects on the core network are discussed from the design perspective.
This exam requires a foundation or apprentice knowledge of network design for Cisco enterprise network architectures. CCDA certified professionals can design routed and switched network infrastructures and services involving LAN/WAN technologies for SMB or basic enterprise campus and branch networks.

hi guys… can n e one tell me if there n e simulation task in the ccda exam? kindly reply. m going to attemp in this week
Or 150 EUR in Europe…
Yes, $150 or 135 EUR here in Europe. I passed with 1000/1000 today (23.12.2010) and prepared wih TI 5.71, P4S 2.77, AT 1.3-221 questions. I expected there would be changes after November 8 but it seems it’s still the same 640-863 exam. For example there was no question about data center virtualization as mentioned in 2.1 exam topics here.
Thanks MH.
Exam fee was 150 EUR (I“m from EU), but in e-mail with subject “Cisco Testing Confirmation Letter”, there was something like this:
Total Purchases: $US 150.00
Unfortunatelly, Cisco is counting 1USD = 1EUR 🙁
Dear Careercert. can you please tell me the CCDA exam fee.
Thanks in Advance
CCDA exam fee is $US 150.00
..
Can you please tell me that what’s the difference between the following two.I have copied it from cisco website
CCDA DESGN Exam Refresh v2.1
Candidates who have exams scheduled on Nov. 8, 2010 or later should prepare using the CCDA DESGN v2.1 Exam Topics (blueprint).
Candidates with exams scheduled prior to Nov. 7, 2010 should continue using the existing CCDA DESGN v2.0 Exam Topics (blueprint). Please view the DESGN Study/Learn tab for more information on how to study and prepare for the exam.
According tobelow post my question is that what dumps and video training will be used for v2.1 or Careercert will upload the latest.Please guide me because i want to write my CCDA on 20 November.
I passed ccda this week, scored 1000/1000. Duration of test: <13 minutes.
Used: p4s 181q, actual test 221 and TI 128q
All of them are valid. But…
TI(128q) doesn`t contain all q
AT(221q) IMO contains too much q (not all of them are really used)
P4S(181q) is maybe best choice, but in some questions, there are only 4 choices (ABCD), but there are 5 choices (ABCDE) in real test…
P4S will be enough, but TI+P4S+AT (respectively) will ensure 100% success.
Good luck!

all dumps are still valid. i passed ccda on sat 9th oct scored 1000/1000 used p4s 181q actual test 221 and test inside 128q
