Excellent Resource for CCIE Prep

This book rates up there with the best. It covers all the topics for CCIE preparation. All routing protocols found in the CCIE lab are covered, including an excellent reference for BGP. LAN switching as related to the 3550 switches is covered. Includes study material regarding the topics covered in the latest requirements for CCIE on the Cisco.com website. I use this book also as a reference for daily work activities as needed.

Just passed the written exam today.

Took and passed the CCIE written exam this morning. This book is the best one out there for a sole source preparation guide to the CCIE written. When I was studying for the written I did not want to have to buy five books to study, and what this book offered was a great reference/study guide that followed the written exam blueprint extremely well. I strongly recommend this book for anybody that is seriously preparing for the CCIE written exam. Also, based on the content of the book, I think it will be a major resource for my lab preparation as well.

Not just a study guide

I personally need good reference books on examples of how to set up different types of networks in my everyday job. I have no desire at this time to study for a CCIE certification but am constantly on the lookout for detailed examples on how to set up and configure cisco equipment. This book is loaded with real life examples that can be used as a baseline for any network design type. I recommend this book as a "must have" for your personal library. Well written in easy to understand language and detailed examples that deal with any type network configuration every day.

GREAT Book, but has errors

This is a GREAT book, as I first used the Cisco Press R & S Written exam guide by Anthony Bruno, but the Cisco Press book does not provide any in-depth information, it only provides an introduction then points to a URL on the Cisco website. The Sybex CCIE Study Guide provides extremely in-depth coverage of the material, and it is written in everyday language so that it is easy to comprehend. I defintely recommend the Sybex book, and although there are errors in the book, go to the Sybex website and get the FREE Errata for this book, and you will have a great CCIE study guide and on-the-job reference.

A Great Reference

Great reference material to have around when you need some answers or examples to resolve that problem which jogs the memory. This book is well laid out and it is obvious that the authors have a lot of experience under their belts. The book is easy reading and the examples are well documented and relevant to day to day workings. I would say buy it, even if you are like me, not taking exams but want a good solid reference around. Good job Rob and Kevin.
