I sat this exam at the NG AI level. I see that the NGX version is out now, but I don't think that the content will have changed greatly. There will probably be some stuff on the newer stuff around global VPNS, but I think it will be pretty similar.

If you have got access to the Provider-1 course notes, they are pretty good to follow.

As I recall, it's not too difficult an exam - just make sure you know the terminology for the different components, and different types of architectures - i.e. single MDS, MDS+MLM, HA, etc. Know about the different sorts of HA - container-level, and MDS-level, and what the differences are. Learn the different license strings, and which ones give you what.

Looking at the objectives, you'll probably get a few questions on global policy, plus some stuff on synchronisation. Similar to standard mgmt server HA, you probably want to know what the different states mean.

I think you might need to know what the different tabs are used for in the MDG too, and the different views.

If you've used the product, you should be OK, but make sure you brush up on the stuff that you perhaps don't use every day.
