You must pass the two-hour, written exam before you are eligible to schedule the lab exam.

|
Step Two: CCIE Wireless Lab Exam |

The eight-hour lab exam confirms that you have the job skills and technical knowledge required of a wireless expert-level network professional. You must make an initial attempt of the CCIE lab exam within 18-months of passing the CCIE written exam. If you do not pass the lab exam within three years of passing the written exam, you must retake the written exam before being allowed to attempt the lab exam again.
