Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - used for boson test engine
I used CCNA: Cisco Certified Network Associate Study Guide: Exam 640-802 to 60% prepare for the exam. I used this book for the boson test engine because for some reason the author's ability to get information to stick in my brain was tough. I used CCNA 640-802 Network Simulator to prepare for hands-on which was about 30% of my time. If you can use this to pass instead of Todd's book, that's great, but the more books the better in my mind.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Cisco Book to BEGIN learning from
Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices, Part 1 (ICND1).

So I thought this book was a well laid out book for what I was trying to get out of it. I am trying to get my first Cisco Certification and wanted something from CiscoPress - as I feel that they have the best book to study from.

I liked how the book was organized and how it progress through the information. I thought the clarity on subjects was excellent.

I wanted the book to have current information ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Good Content, Poor Editing
All in all a good book on networking. The book could be organized better, 6 chapters over 463 pages makes for a little rough reading, they could have broken it into more, less broad chapters.

The end of chapter quizzes are AWFUL. I scored about 70% on the first chapter, but some of their explanations we're glaringly wrong. I went to the Cisco press website and downloaded the errata for this book, and there are 8 MISTAKES IN THE FIRST CHAPTER'S QUIZ ALONE! There are only 50 questions, ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent Networking Book
I purchased this book towards preparation for the CCNA exam, and for my own learning purposes, to help me in
configuring my own network set-ups and installations.
I liked it so much, its clarity and detail, that I enrolled at SUNY Farmingdale, Cisco Networking Academy and
Computer Science Dept. to learn even more, and prepare myself for a new trade or occupation as a computer net-
working technician; with website programming, design and maintainence as a minor. I already am a hardware ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - A CISCO CCENT Book
It is a great book, good organized but its not sufficient to complete the CCENT. To pass CCENT successfully, you most read it with books like
1. CCNA ICND1 640-822 CCENT Study Guide and Examination Guide Q&A, by thaar al_taiey.
2. CCENT/CCNA ICND1 Official Exam Certification Guide, 2nd Edition, by Wendell Odom.
3. CCENT: Cisco Certified Entry Networking Technician Study Guide: ICND1 (Exam 640-822) (Exam 640-822 With CD), by Todd Lammle.
