Customer Reviews

This is great!

Out of all the Cisco Exams this is the Cisco Switching Exam for the CCNP 2.0 course is the first exam I have passed with reading the book only. Doug Hammond and Sean Odom did a great job and created a book for those with no Cisco experience. I like the imaginary CCIE character that walks you through the labs. That was cool in fact to have step by step lab resolutions. I like chapter 4 which lists all the switches and their features in bar graphs as well. I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone studying for their CCNP 2.0 Switching Exam. Looking at the comments from other I see I am not a minority either.

Good Book

I have read two of the switching books out there and this is the one that I personally recommend and here is why. This book just doesn't stop at the study guide level for the CCNP Switching Exam but it also covers the the components of every LAN switch and their features. This has helped my purchasing decisions so much and everytime someone asks if a switch does something I just go to Chapter 4 and look at the bar graphs and tables for each switch. It has been a cool reference. I like the CCIE character that walks you through each step too. He makes it easy for a first timer on switches to figure out how to make the interfaces work and the configuration run correctly. This is a great book!

Really Good

I have to say that this is one of the best study books I have read. I heard about the book through Groupstudy.com and their reveiws as being one of the best study guides available for switching. I have to give me official veiw as it is an A+ book since I passed my Remote Access test with 910 and passing was 755.

Very Good Book

I must admit I am a former student of Sean Odom's and so maybe I am bias. He guarenteed me that everything I need to know to pass the Switching Exam was in his book. I passed it with a 940 after reading his book a couple of times. I now only have the Routing Exam left and I will be a CCNP!

Switching

This is one of the best Switching books I have read. This book was instrumental in helping me pass my CCNP Cisco certification. Don't think twice about this purchase, It will be money well spent.
