Don't just cram for the exam. Develop a structured study plan for CCIE certification. You know attaining CCIE certification is tough. Only 20% of candidates pass it the first time. Improve your odds dramatically by applying the proven test preparation techniques described in this book. Bridges, Routers and Switches for CCIE's provides a systematic roadmap to guide candidates in expanding their internetworking knowledge base as well as refining internetwork "issue spotting", troubleshooting and analysis skills.
You'll learn key test-taking strategies as you review all major protocols. By categorizing and ordering internetworking topics, you will build a systematic study scheme. End-of chapter checklists help you advance as your knowledge base grows. The six levels covered in this book are:
- Level I: Physical and Data Link Layer (Frame-Relay, ISDN, Catalyst 5000, ATM).
- Level II: IP Addressing, IP IGP Routing and Route Redistribution (RIP, IGRP, EIGRP and OSPF).
- Level III: IP Exterior Gateway Routing Protocols (BGP4).
- Level IV: Non-IP Routing Protocols (IPX, AppleTalk, DECNET).
- Level V: Non-IP Routing Protocols (Transparent Bridging, IRB, SRB, SRT and DLSw+).
- Level VI: Managing Internetwork Traffic (Access-lists, Queuing and Route-Maps).
All topics covered will involve a hands-on format including:
- Step-by-step configuration explanations.
- Expert use of Cisco IOS Show commands.

Format:Hardcover
There is a lot of information in this book but you might as well read the Cisco web site pages - or the local telephone directory for a more interesting evening! There are not the drill questions that would really bring the information home and the important information is submerged within some of the most impenetrable verbage ever to have crossed the Atlantic.
Obviously rushed out to catch the Cisco Certification rush, I would not recommend that you rush to buy this book - at least not with your own money!
Format:Paperback
This book is good ,no this book is great. Very explanatory, good examples, excellent scenarios. With a thousand pages and thirty three chapters it is quite a chunk but very interestingly delivered. I feel so much confident having gone 75% of the book. The only thing is that i wish it had more diagrams
You ain't serious about your CCIE untill you have this one in your kit

I have worked with a few people who have studied (and passed) CCIE. We all found that our copies of "Caslow" formed the backbone of our studies. It's the "dog's proverbials"! We would all like to thank the author for such a "spot-on" book.
