Pretty much you need to focus on most of the routing topics

ISIS
BGP
OSPF
EIGRP
RIP (v1 and v2)
IPv6

I have taken it twice in the last 6 weeks, and have failed twice, by 3
bloody percent! Judgement day for me now is the 19th of this month, as
31st December is the last time you can take the old syllabus (642-801),
and that had to be booked by a few weeks ago.

Anyway...

There are quite a few questions questions on IPv6, two simulations that
come up all the time - one on OSPF stub networks, and one on redistribution.

There is lots of everything in there, but not too much on RIP.

Know the order how to place route-maps
Know the BGP med value, and how it works
The order of BGP attributes that are involved in route calculation
always comes up
Lots of EIGRP routing/topology table stuff, like what happens if a route
drops from a summary route etc...
Know your OSPF message types
Frame-relay bandwidth questions
EIGRP - Feasible distance and advertised distance

I could go on, but these are guaranteed to come up.

Good luck

Regards
