Each section of the book is designed to cover a separate ""layer"" of a critical networking issue, such as bridging, routed protocols, and more. The book provides complete coverage of Cisco-specific... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This book does an excellent job of calling small details to your attention that sometimes slide right by you when using larger books. Between this and Jeff Doyle's TCP/IP book, you'll be covered for the written exam and have a firm foundation for the lab. A must for your library and my compliments to the author!

Why did this kind of book took so long to be published? The content is just what is missing in the Cisco Press publications, even better, this book is the first that offer a metodology for studying the Cisco stuff, generalizes the commands and make them easy to get along with them. The price is very reasonable and gives you better material in 474 pages than other with more than 500. If you are thinking about having a better understanding of the "Dark side of Cisco" take look at this an uncover them, they are unbelievably easy to understand with Rudenko.

Ok. So you've got all the Cisco Press Books. And you think what good is one little black book going to make. This is one of the most practical books on Cisco so far. The other one written from a practical approach was a title by McGraw-Hill.This book is a winner. The author literally packs so much information in so few pages! unbelievable. This book covers almost everything : Bridging, Routing protocols, Frame-Relay, Redistribution etc.Highly Recommended. You wont be sorry. Invaluable for the CCIE Lab. Get this book plus Bruce Caslow's.
Great help for practicing networkers

Great job!!! That's exactly what I needed: to know not only HOW but also WHY!!! This is one of the best books written about practical computer networking yet. The author in a very good manner explains many of the twilight networking issues. I strongly believe that this book would be a great source for any practicing network guy working with Cisco routers. And it certainly can provide a lot of help to prepare for Cisco's certification tests. Thank you Innokenty!!
