[ale] Linux + Vendor neutral???

[James Taylor]

I was an SME for the previous version of NET+, and spent a week and a half working with a team of other SME's reviewing and rewriting the questions from the original exam.

It was incredibly Windows centric, but I was able have some impact toward making it network rather than platform specific to a far greater extent than it was.  It was a real battle, though.

An example of a question would be the windows switches for ping to allow continuous pings.  The original question didn't specify platform, so it just assumed all versions of ping stop at 4 tries.

Net+  was not to bad.  A few off the wall questions, that didn't really 
have a correct answer or the truly correct answer was not present.  I 
used the Exam Cram books.  Just kept running the test over and over 
until I was >80% and then took the test.
