January 22nd, 2015 Go to comments
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).

    Hi guys, does anyone got portsecurity ticket???? Or it was IP DHCP helper ticket all along.

    People who passed 1000/1000 can you please let me know which tickets you guys got.

    Hi @Liza,
    To solve ticket port security, you shoud use command: “show ip interface” to get port status, If have any port’s status is down then port security is correct answer.

    @Contact me to get share full dump (VCE, PDF, PKT, UNL) with VCE tool player and all lab sim on EVE, Packet Tracer, GNS: saaau_holo(at)yaaahoo.com (replace aaa=a

    I hope that clarifies for you why the ports are up and port-security shows violations.
    My advice is check the mac address in the port-security statement with the show run , identify if that mac add matches the client 1- WHERE DO U FIND MAC ADDRESS OF CLIENT 1?? i have an idea, but i want someone from the real test to answer this?

    Hi all, I am new to this site and have signed up as Premium member. I see in comments section people saying Nov dumps is valid. Is this on this site? If so, where is it?
    Is it best to learn all the Multiple Choice Questions on this site?

    I eagerly await your response, many thanks all

    what is the hsrp sim consist of ???

  6. edson
    January 11th, 2020

    Took the test 2 hours ago and score 1000. Only Nov MCQs were on the test.
    BGP sim, HSRP sim, and the tickets are all the same as here.

    I got the NAT Ticket and for some reason R2, DSW1 can ping to 209.65.200.241 on that ticket but Host01 can’t ping to 209.65.200.241.That confuse me a little to identify the ticket.
    All the others ticket were ok.

  7. Liza
    January 11th, 2020

    @edson which tickets you got?? Did you get port security or ipdhcp helper???

  8. ALUCARD
    January 11th, 2020

    Scored 100! All I have to say is subscribe to premium, read Nov MCQ and follow NULLZERO Strategy.

  9. Liza
    January 11th, 2020

    @realtesttaker I have exam very soon. I can’t do ipconfig/all at client 1 then how do you confirm the client mac for port security verify???????

  10. Liza
    January 11th, 2020

    @alucard hey can you please share which tickets you got? I’m so nervous I have already missed this exam 3 times. I got 80% in infrastructure security and 70 in L2 anyone can tell what I maybe doing wrong??

  11. @Lisa-liza
    January 11th, 2020

    yes thats what I want someone who has taken the real test to answer I dont know if u can do a ipconfig /all or not?? to get the mac -? i dont think @here even no what that is but i am assuming no one here has tried to get the mac of client 1 that way ?? I guess u can do a sh mac-address table on DSW1 to see if any macs are learnt, but it would be nice to know the mac of client 1 regardless

  12. Tintumon
    January 11th, 2020

    Please take care on the IP NAT Ticket on exam- all the devices can ping public ip except client. but the outside interface having ip nat Inside .

  13. edson
    January 11th, 2020

    @Liza I got IP DHCP helper.

    The others ticket were, NAT outside misconfiguration, Redistribute route-map with wrong name, ports that has to be in access mode instead of trunking, Port channel not allowing vlan 10, VLAN Filter, OSPF Authentication, IPV6:Enable OSPF, IPV6: remove tunnel mode ipv6, EIGRP passive interface.

  14. confused twenty-2
    January 11th, 2020

    u know the average 952 score shows that some of the tickets here are not FULLY correct all 3 entries – I just checked the vlan/acl answer is to remove vlan filter test1 vlan-list 10 command which tells the switch to filter on Vlan 10 only ok so the other answers there are correct to b/c they eliminate the filter also. the ones getting 1000 know this and they dont pick ALL the answers on this site not that im complaining just sayin to these 1G marks

    @confused twenty-2
    What was your answers in the ticket of VLAN access map??

  16. bokd21
    January 11th, 2020

    Just passed with 1000. All MCQs from Nov. BGP & HSRP Sim. All tickets are valid.

  17. bokd21
    January 11th, 2020

    @Liza, run command “show mac address” from the switch? if mac on fa1/0/1 matches, then not a port security issue.

  18. @bokd21
    January 11th, 2020

    What was your answers in the ticket of VLAN access map? if u gotta 1000 then u no ty.

  19. maria

    Hi guys, I passed today with 1000/1000 . I am so happy :)) I can explain if you have any questions. All premium is valid here. MCQs are valid. Sıms are valid. All in november dump. I got %100 on Layer 2, so i can say there are a few dilemma , So some people say tickets are not true in Layer 2 ,that is a lie, i solved all ticket maybe 10 times and all was the same and correct coz i get full point. I can say for sure that :
    “”””In Configuration mode, using the interface range Fa1/0/1 – 2, then no switchport port-security, followed by shutdown, no shutdown interface configuration commands. “””” is true answer . and “””Under the global configuration mode enter no vlan filter test1 vlan-list 10 command. “”” is true for sure also.
    I have a different methodology for solving tickets and it is %100 usable. I will share soon.

    Sat the exam and passed today. All premium member material still valid. All MCQs and two DnD from Nov still valid. BGP and HSRP are valid. All tickets are valid also. Total 24 questions on the exam.

    Thanks @networktut team. Look forward to new material.

    Hi guys, I have a different methotology than Sam. My strategy is:
    First check Client if it gets ip or not,if it gets ping Default gateway(10.2.1.254) from Client if it pings that is great go to Routers.
    Try to ping 209.65.200.241(server) from R4,R3,R2,R1.
    Check which router can not reach server. So the problem must be between the router can & cannot reach. Check for those possibilities. Use neighbor command, dont try to only memorize the answers. If you do basic tshoot the tickets are really easy, I am saying this coz I failed first time i took that exam when i memorized the answers, and today i passed 1000/1000 coz i studied the tickets .
    If the ticket is Ipv6 (which there were 3 in my exam) ,chech for ipv6 routing table by command “sh ipv6 route “ on R4,R3,R2 if you see 2026::102:1 in routing table thats great, on which routers between you can & cant see that 2026::102:1 there will be a problem, lets say you see in R3 but cant see in R2 ,so the problem is between R3 and R2, check for that config. (which is interface s0/0/0.23 in this exam ) when you check that it is easy to see there is a ospf neig problem.
    Always use ip ospf neighbor ,ip eig neig ipv6 ospf neig command to check if there is a problem.
    If the client doesnt get Ip ,it is easier. Check for whether ip dhcp helper is 10.1.21.129. If it does check for Dsw1 and Asw1 conf , these are really basic layer 2 problems.
    I can say for sure that :
    “In Configuration mode, using the interface range Fa1/0/1 – 2, then no switchport port-security, followed by shutdown, no shutdown interface configuration commands.“ is correct answer . and
    “Under the global configuration mode enter no vlan filter test1 vlan-list 10 command. “ is correct also.

    @morarica i dont have any dump , go to premium MCQ page you will have chance to practice the real exam ,, also you can use real lab tickets also, i am telling you guys ,premium is really valid, and it is only 1 monthe left for the big CCNP change, get your certificate now, if you have any problem with understanding the logic of yhe ticket you can ask me. And LAYER 2 tickets are %100 correct , coz i did the same and get %100 on Layer2

    Are there Drag & Drop questions on the exam?

  27. gugba
    January 11th, 2020

    @Lorna Doone 2 drag drop were in the exam and both of them in MCQs in premium

  28. Strummer

    Hey All – just finished the exam yesterday (Jan 10th). Perfect score. MCQs are from the Nov 13th set. Take your time with the tickets and verify once you think you have the answer (for example. if it’s a VLAN Access issue – run a ‘show vlan’ to see if it’s associated to the port).

    Purchase Premium – it’s a great investment.

    Hello everyone. passed today at 1000. all MC, Sim and ticket is the same. You should get the Premium a/c for prepare. I had 24 questions in total:

    TKT:
    T9, Switch to Switch
    T4, IP Nat
    T12 , IPV6 OSPF
    T15, IPv4 and IPv6
    T14, IPv4 EIGRP
    T3, BGP
    T11a IPv4 Route Redistrbution
    T17 Asscee vlans
    T13, DHCP
    T7, Poer security
    T5 IPv4 Layer 3 security
    T1 IPv4 OSPF

    all question and answer is same here. Please take a very carful on reading the question, specifical on the ticket, the T7 , you need to scroll down to find the Port Security on the menu!
    when you reading the ticket , the IPv4 or IPv6 on the ticket itself, not showing in the scenario.

    make sure you double check and check again before you click on DONE. Each question only shows on each ticket, meaning , you click on DONE, then you might go to MC or drag and drop.

    I read SAM and here is my note, thank you everyone for sharing the experience.

    one the BGP sim, make sure you do ” sh ip bgp” after you finish the command and get the same result as the question provide. i almost did it worng. i put the wrong command it should be:
    i put : neighbot 209.165.201.2 remote-as 64520
    Correct: neighbor 209.165.201.2 remote-as 64525

    the “sh ip bgp” saved me

    I have enough time to finish all question. i use one hour and ten mins.
