Great guide for designing networks
I got this book expecting an easy way to pass the CCDA exam, what I got was a whole lot more. This book is excellent for anyone who ever needs to plan, analyze or install a computer network. It covers not only all the technical information that was on the exam (very strong on WAN technologies) but also the practical application of how to determine the best network for your needs, then test and implement accordingly. It has step by step instructions for planning, implementing and testing. The author also covers troubleshooting not only from a technical standpoint but also from a client needs analysis perspective. I did pass the CCDA exam, although there was nothing too easy about it, all the information was covered in this book and I came away with confidence that I can plan and troubleshoot intelligently any network from a high level. I now apply a lot of this information in my daily work. If this is your career goal, get the book and you'll won't be disappointed.
