5 out of 5 stars Very good reference book   November 18, 2005

Wish I had a book like this last year when I was attempting to pass my exam(s), it is my goal for next year. I was really surprised by the size of it, being so thin, yet packed with useful information that will make any person just starting (or not) supporting cisco devices wished they had at their disposal for quickly finding the proper sequence when their memory doesn't want to cooperate with them and its much easier than finding the info through Cisco's web site or through the help menu on the device. This will definitely help with a quick tune up just prior to the exam. I've never used flash cards but I would probably say it would be very similar to that.

I posted this info on Certcities.com and one of the guys there asked if it was the same as http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1587131595/002-0029014-1337631?v=glance&n=283155&n=193977&s=books&v=glance and it does appear to be very similar. Had I known about the other book before I would have got it too for my library.

I'd give it a thumbs up for a very good quick reference guide to everything I wanted to know.



5 out of 5 stars As good as you can get for a dry subject   March 26, 2006

This is one of the better study aids, but as with all study aids it is boring to read. It may just be me, but I hate to read anything like this, but I have to keep my certs. It is up to date with the latest verion of the test and very informative. It will make a great companion to use along side the bigger complete CCNA test prep books and also to use in the field when you need to remember those odd commands.

I would have loved this book while I was still studying for my CCNA. I grabbed this, because I thought it would be like a command dictionary. It's more of a step-by-step for beginners. I would Cisco made a CCNP portable command guide.

If you are taking the Cisco Academy classes, you will wonder why this book is not a required text. I sure did. One of the other students in the class bought one in and, after taking a look at it, I ordered myself a copy the next week. The book very clearly lays out, with examples, the commands needed to configure Cisco routers and switches. The text does not give you detailed background as to what all the commands mean and the various options for each command, so you will still need to "know your stuff" in order to get the desired results. However, if you are like me and spend time trying to remember the right words to type in on the less common configurations, this is a great tool to quickly get you to the "Oh, yeah! Now I remember."
