An excelletn book for CCDA
This was the only book I am using to achieve CCDA! The book gives a lot of information for beginners about the technologies without boring details which is more than enough to pass the exam. I found the book also very useful for my work as I am quite frequently involved in designing our network, restructuring it. By following the design methodology as per this book its very easy for me to plan the future growth. The CD stuff is great and the practice exams are very helpful. I would recommend practice it well in order to achieve CCDA. Anyone who reads this book cover to cover is more than enough for CCDA. From the presentation and content point this is the best self studying guide and it covers the objectives of CCDA in detail. If anyone who is aware of Network standards and fundamentals he can skip the chapter one. The best thing I liked about this book is the case study as I am working in a Ministry of Health it helped me a lot. But there are some errors in the book, some the reference links given are not working and most of them are from Cisco website. Overall this book deservers more than 4 stars but I would go with 4 stars. An excellent study guide for CCDA.
