9tut.com for your ccna r&s needs, the comments tend to have something resembling recent braindumps linked eventually, and the rest can be easily filled in with actually knowing some routing and switching shit. Except you want to spend a minute with ACLs/OSPF/RIPv2 and -maybe- EIGRP, as the beefy "miss this and fail" type questions are usually focused on that.
For all the fear instilled in kids about the importance of IPv6 after the update in the fall, had two questions on my exam and neither had anything to do with addressing at all, just basic concept crap.
I'm not even sure Sec+ is braindumpable, because the material I read regarding it before I moved on to storage shit was the most hilarious common sense stuff with minor definitions strewn in. Lock the door that leads to your racks? OH SHIT, SON! What, a trojan isn't exactly the same as a worm? NO GODDAMN WAY. You mean a zero day exploit doesn't happen three weeks after software is released? YOU DON'T SAY.
That said, even though I now deal primarily with HP/Dell servers and storage on the daily, my job still gives pay increases (not major, but then I'm not Vinen/Cad) for basically any cert, so I'm roughly in a similar boat as Mist when it comes to just amassing assloads.
Bit of warning though, when I took the Network+ in January after I got my CCNA, there's not nearly as much overlap as you would hope. Much greater focus on knowing RF#s and cabling specifications that aren't even hinted at in the CCENT/CCNA track, as well as a lot more wireless information. It would probably be worthwhile to look at a braindump or two before taking it, even outdated ones, just to see the range of questions.
