Note: The last day to take this TSHOOT 300-135 exam is February 23, 2020. After this day you have to take new Enterprise exams to get new CCNP Enterprise certification. If you want to find out more about the new exams please visit here.

This article is devoted for candidates who took the TSHOOT exam to share their experience. Please tell us what are your materials, the way you learned, your feeling and experience after taking the TSHOOT v2.0 exam… But please DO NOT share any information about the detail of the exam or your personal information, your score, exam date and location, your email…

Your posts are warmly welcome!

Exam’s Structure:

+ Some Multiple choice & drag drop questions
+ 2 Simlets
+ 15 lab-sim Questions with the same network topology (15 troubleshooting tickets or you can call it one “big” question). Each lab-sim is called a ticket and you can solve them in any order you like.

Topics of the lab-sims:

1- IPv6
2- OSPF
3- OSPFv3
4- Frame Relay
5- GRE
6- EtherChannel
7- RIPng
8- EIGRP
9- Redistribution
10- NTP
11- NAT
12- BGP
13- HSRP
14- STP
15- DHCP

The problems are rather simple. For example wrong IP assignment, disable or enable a command, authentication…

In each tickets you will have to answer three types of questions:

+ Which device causes problem
+ Which technology is used
+ How to fix it

When you press Done to finish each case, you can’t go back.

A demo of the TSHOOT Exam can be found at: http://www.cisco.com/web/learning/le3/le2/le37/le10/tshoot_demo.html

Note:

+ In the new TSHOOTv2, you cannnot use the “Abort” button anymore. Therefore you cannot check the configuration of another ticket before completing the current ticket.

+ We have gathered many questions about TSHOOT exam and posted them at TSHOOT FAQs & Tips, surely you will find useful information about the TSHOOT exam there!

Below are the topologies of the real TSHOOT exam, you are allowed to study these topologies before taking the exam. It surely saves you some invaluable time when sitting in the exam room (Thanks rrg for sharing this).

    Regarding your comment, you were talking only about the bgp sim, right?

    yes right i am talking about the bgp sim and the mentioned ip (209.165.227.2 not 209.65.217.0) is correct

    @Solid Snake
    In the sim lab a new ip adress should be configured instead of 209.65.201.2 and i cannot say which exactly. It is better to check the topology before deploying the configuration.

    Failed today :-( Want to re-take the exam again in a week.
    L2 76%
    L3 68%
    Anyone idea what I could have been missed? If you re-take the exam, will it be the same?

    @Shadow,
    I completely understand. Actually I also created new email for this purpose so that my personal email won’t be publicized.

    I had a premium account but already expired 4 days ago, and now 11 hours from now is my exam.
    I just want to borrow anyones’ premium account during the last minute of my exam. Because I want to reconfirm something. Only if they wouldn’t mind.
    Ghost is actually willing to lend his premium however his account has expired on the same day as mine, HAHAHAH. We actually exchanged screenshots as proof, but yeah it can’t be helped.

    So up to you if you could grant my request. Cheers, Congrats, and Thanks for your inputs.

    I recently passed my CCNP Switch and i passed my CCNP route some time ago. With only just over 2 weeks to go I wasn’t going to do the tshoot but somebody told me it’s pretty straight forward. Could I do it with 2 weekends and a few nights work??

  11. 1ManTim
    February 5th, 2020

    It’s already 2:20am here in Singapore.
    I think I should call it a day and get a good night sleep to have a fresh mind later on.

    Later at 1pm is my exam.
    If someone is willing to lend their premium account, so I can review on the last minute, I thank you for your kind heart.

    email is: onemant1m(at)yahoo(dot)com

    I’ll check my email first thing in the morning. CIAO and Good luck to all takers on 6 Feb.

    @anon,
    My friend studied for 3 days and passed it.

    But he’s a smart guy.
    I think You could pull it off too.
    You still have two weeks.

    @anon,
    He also used Premium.

  14. Crono
    February 5th, 2020

    Took mine today. Nothing is different from the premium info on this site so ignore all trolls saying other wise.

    Scored a 9XX using this site. I did not have the “Removed from test” tickets on mine but i studied them anyway cause you never know.

    Also all MCQ were from Nov questions.

    Good Luck to any last minute takers before it expires

    Hi all, i also want to confirm that the exam is exactly as Simlets and Tickets here. MCQs all from November. The topology and IP address exactly the same. Passed today with 923 in an hour more or less.
    Thank you Very Much Networktut, thank you all supporters. Do membership, practice labs here and good luck guys.

    @crono

    I swear I’m not troll, if you see my comments here and in Switching I’ve always been collaborating and helping people. But it is clear that we are several that we are having problems in layer 2 technologies and layer 3 technologies . Will there be 2 different test models?

    Does anyone know that tickets refer to layer 2 and layer 3?

    I passed today with 1000 , please Focus and practice , the exam is too easy if you at least have Hand off , i little confuse n a ticket of NAT because responding ping of everywehere.

    Hi All,

    Can you confirm if you can do ipconfig on the client in the exam please? Does ping also work?

    Thanks

  20. @hussy42
    February 5th, 2020

    Yes, both work in the exam. All the best!

    Just took the test passed everything is the same Nov MCQ valid.

    @Crono, @nameless,

    I might just have had a bad day and lots of stress, missing something obvious when client couldn’t ping past DSW1… Add a bit of paranoia into the mix when 3+ other lads have similar percentages.

    Nevertheless, will brush up on the tickets again and review the L2 L3 technologies.

    Does anyone know that tickets refer to layer 2 technologies and layer 3 technologies?

  24. Disappointed
    February 5th, 2020

    Just took the test. I got 835 and I needed 846 to pass :(
    76% on L2 technologies
    82% on L3 technologies

    I knew every single ticket and it only took me an hour to go through the test. I thought I was going to get 1000/1000. Not sure where I messed up. I verified all the ticket solutions multiple ways so I think it must have been one of the multiple choice questions that I got wrong.

    @Solid Snake,

    I thought I posted that already…

    based on the exam topics on ciscos website, please chip in if I’m wrong here.

    Layer 2 tech:
    errdisable > ticket 7
    Troubleshoot vlans > ticket 8
    troubleshoot trunking > ticket 9, 17

    Layer 3 tech:
    OSPF, BGP, EIGRP > ticket 1, 3, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16

    Infrastructure services:
    NAT ticket 4, DHCP ticket 13

    Infrastructure security:
    ACL ticket 5

    Unsure: ticket 2, ticket 6,

    I tried looking around for HSRP if it’s layer 2 or 3, but it can be both :/

    as for vlan filter, well vlan is layer 2, but filtering any protocol is layer 3.

    F’s in the chat for Disappointed. That’s gotta sting! I think the MCQ’s from november are on point,there’s a link to a PDF floating around in one of these pages.

    I thought I as close with ~60 points off, figured that’s 1 ticket and a HSRP Sim question away from passing…

  27. SDS
    February 5th, 2020

    @noName great, thanks!

  28. Anon
    February 5th, 2020

    correction on above. DHCP is also in layer 3 technologies, so the ticket could be either L3 or services.

    infrastructure services also has DHCP troubleshooting, but it’s only 5% of the exam. so… *shrugs*

  29. Anon
    February 5th, 2020

    Another thing I had on my exam, the exam structure was different. Please can someone confirm?
    according to networktut:
    Exam’s Structure:

    + 15 lab-sim Questions with the same network topology (15 troubleshooting tickets or you can call it one “big” question). Each lab-sim is called a ticket and you can solve them in any order you like.

    I had tickets in random order together with MCQs and DD/BGP/HSRP simlets.

  30. Hrocket
    February 5th, 2020

    Passed today, 1K took 1h 50m. MCQ, and drag drop are good from November. Study IPV6, I got stuck on these. The tickets, and MCQ are not in order.

    Ticket 1 – OSPF Authentication
    Ticket 4 – NAT ACL
    Ticket 6 – VLAN filter
    Ticket 9 – Switchport trunk
    Ticket 11b – Redistribution Route-map (incorrect routemap name)
    Ticket 12 – IPv6 OSPF
    Ticket 13 – DHCP Helper-address
    Ticket 14 – EIGRP Passive Interface
    Ticket 15 – IPv6 GRE Tunnel
    Ticket 17 – Switchport Encapsulation
