Hello all!
I just purchased the ICND1 premium labs and was wondering if this is all I need to practice commands for the CCENT. I was told packet tracer/gns3 for practicing CCENT objectives but I presume that this is exactly what the premium labs will offer!
Thanks for the help with this matter!
The premium labs you've purchased access to gives you access to ACTUAL equipment, not GNS3 or packet tracer. It's a full lab environment setup for you to use so you should have access to actual routers and switches for each lab that is presented.
The key to usage and preparation for the exam is SPEED and ACCURACY. Make sure you not only practice configuration commands but also the different SHOW commands will be important for the CCENT exam. You must be able to exam what is displayed to help you when your configuration is not working. Make sure that you can subnet quickly and accurately. Practice your subnets especially the /12, /16, /27, and /29 very well.

@Ronnie-Wong Thanks Ronnie! Just finished up watching the "Easy Subnetting" video and have been relentlessly repeating the "16" intervals for the past hour 
I really appreciate the response!
You my friend are on the right track. You'll see direct subnetting questions but just about every question that's "challenging" will have in its context subnetting of some sort! Please feel free to post questions here too. We've got a few if not more than a few members that are good at CCENT and CCNA! So be ready for multiple replies!

Also check out this website for some fierce subnetting practice.
It will throw all types of subnetting questions at you.
Ah yes I've seen that site and this http://www.subnettingquestions.com
I'm taking the 100-101 version of the CCENT with WGU and they provided free materials (Pearson Network Simulator, Boson Practice Exams) but I'm gonna go with ITProTV's videos and Wendell's book. Hope this will be enough!
I'll also be using this chart on the exam: http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=o5ckk9&s=9#.V3HNVVfk27a
Is that ok to use?
as long as you memorize it then write it down on the provided scrap paper they provide, yes you can use it.
You can't print it out then take it with you to be used on the test.
Of course haha!
Wendell Odom's book is top notch and comprehensive; Cool thing is that you're able to practice the configs through our premium labs on real equipment. Remember "Speed and Accuracy" is the key. One or the other will not do for your CCENT and CCNA studies.
