Default CCSA NGX Exam

Hi All

I'm looking for some advise. Which coure material available on the Checkpoint site, will cover the CCSA NGX exam? I've posted the same question to Checkpoint but have not recieved an answer yet, perhaps someone here will know.
Need to get my cert before I do anything else...

Thanks

Read through previous posts on this. Basically, the Syngress 'Configuring Check Point NGX' book gives a solid base to work from but isn't exam focused.

Probably the best thing you can do is look at the exam objectives on Check Point's site and download the corresponding pdf documents, working through them to make sure you've covered the topic.

A number of people have also used the Boson test simulation software which started off poor, but is steadily getting better with updates.

Finally, it goes with out saying that you'll need the NGX Evaluation CD.

Passed CCSA NGX

That is my post after taking the test. It lists the exam topics as shown on my score report and a link ddarby1 pointed to me on Checkpoint's web site that has some excellent documents that were a big help. The boson tests are indeed getting better. However I find test 4 to have too many topics that are not covered on the CCSA and only the CCSE. Still the overall quality is improving and the explanations when you are incorrect are very detailed. Good luck!
