2010年2月4日，ie的sp（服务供应商）、存储以及无线方面的实验考试都会增加面试了，不过改名为“核心知识”，跟原来一样是随机4题，要对3题，30分钟的简答题，用几个相关的专业词汇就能答上的，而且题目出处可以从cisco.com或者cisco的学习网上看到。

PS：别看原文很长……其实就这样了，简述，OK？

原文：
Effective January 4, 2010, the Cisco CCIE® Service Provider, Storage, and Wireless lab exams will add a new type of question format in a section called Core Knowledge. In this new section, candidates will be asked a series of four open-ended questions that require a short written response to be entered into the computer, typically several words. The questions will be randomly drawn from a pool of questions on topics eligible for testing. Candidates can review the topics by visiting the CCIE track information on Cisco.com or the Cisco Learning Network. No new topics are being added as a result of this change.
Candidates will have up to 30 minutes to complete the Core Knowledge section and may not return to it once they have moved on. A passing score on the Core Knowledge section is required to achieve certification. Core Knowledge questions were implemented on Routing and Switching labs in February 2009 and Security labs in June 2009, and allow Cisco to maintain strong exam security and ensure that only qualified candidates are awarded CCIE certification. Candidates with exam dates on January 4, 2010 or later should expect to see the new question format on their lab exam.
