Summary

Appropriate for any course on Cisco Certification or Cisco Routing Technology. Today's hottest networking certification is Cisco's CCIE program—but only 30% of testers pass this tough exam on the first try. It's no wonder; even Cisco's certified prep courses don't cover all you need to know. This book focuses on the in-depth, hands-on bridge, routing and switch configuration and troubleshooting that are the toughest parts of the exam—and the toughest part of being an internetworking professional, too.

Features


Topics begin with the crucial physical and data-link foundations of Cisco-based internetworks, including configuring and troubleshooting frame-relay, ISDN/DDR and the Catalyst 5000.
Discusses understanding key IP address planning issues, including routing protocol configuration for RIP, IGRP, OSPF and EIGRF.

  • Build on these fundamentals with a close look at configuring IP exterior gateway protocols, non-IP routing protocols (including IPX, AppleTalk and Decnet), and non-routable protocols such as SNA and NetBIOS.
Includes lab exercises and other reinforcement activities.
This hands-on book covers both technologies and test-taking strategies, helping you pass the exam — and get results long afterwards.
