As we know, Cisco has introduced a new Cisco certification program and exam formats from February 24, 2020. To help candidates learn the lab exam environment better, the second webinar of Cisco Live series webinars was held on May 20, 2020. Have you watched it yet? If not, it is right for you to grasp the newest information about CCIE lab through this blog now! We will take you to deep dive into the important news about this webinar, which mainly introduces the desktop environment and lab delivery engine.

1.Desktop Environment:

There is a calculator, magnifier, editor, Cisco Docs, CCIE login on the desk.

Note:

l For the operating system, the lab exam uses windows formerly, while the new lab exam will change to Linux.

l Keyboard and the calculator can change the language.

Two monitors, keyboard, mouse, pen, and paper will be provided in the exam room. You cannot bring any materials. 

2. Lab Delivery Engine 

Lab exam process 

Click the “CCIE login” on the desk and log in to your account.

The DES module will appear first. Read the exam guidelines first and check the box. Then click “Start” to begin the exam.

After entering the DES module, you can see the whole exam progress and the time in the upper right corner.

This is the exam interface. In the DES module, you cannot open the device for command-line operation. You can only see the topology and the materials provided.

When you finish this module, click the “end exam section” on the main screen to proceed to the DOO module.

DES module features:

Type of question: multiple-choice, drag, and drop. Choose the answer according to the given material.

Note: 

1. Backward navigation is disabled. (same as a written exam)
2. The design module is 3-hour. You can terminate this module early, but the time saved cannot be used in the next module.
3. You will not know your score immediately after you finish the test. You will need to wait for an email notification after the test is over.

DOO Module Features:

DOO Module is 5 hours long. The login process is similar to that of the design module. However, the guideline is different from the Design module. 

The command line window, quite different from before, does not use Putty anymore, but use the form of the web page.

Multiple Windows can be opened simultaneously, but synchronously.

During lunch, the proctor will pause the desktop and command window, which will not count in the 5-hour exam time.  

Summarized features for both DES and DOO module:

1. You can visit Cisco’s website during the exam (same as before)
2. It is impossible to practice entirely on a virtual platform, and many of the exercises require real physical equipment.
3. Proctor will pause the exam interface during lunch. But for the time of break such as going to the washroom during the exam, it won’t be paused.
