Despite diagram errors, a good foundation to build upon

This book was required reading for a class that I recently completed. The title seems a little misleading, as I had very little networking experience prior to taking this class, and considered all but two chapters as introductory. Despite errors in some of the diagrams (DCE and PAD mislabelled on p. 73, missing EIFO hub on p. 135 and missing CSU/DSU on p. 139), this book was an excellent read (Had these diagrams been correct, I would have rated this book five stars!). Overall, a solid foundation of topologies, protocols, network design, security and troubleshooting. The end result of this book was an A is the course and a strong interest in persuing network certifications (MCSE+I, CNE, CCIE). A must read for anyone wishing to gain an understanding of networking concepts.
