4 out of 5 stars CCNA

Great for people wanting to get ahead in networking. It is not like a normal textbook. It makes you look for the answers to the end of chapter questions.

5 out of 5 stars textbook

THe book is exactly what I needed for class. It is the Networking Cisco system book that will help you get your Certification from Cisco. Great recources on the book and online through Cisco to help you along.

4 out of 5 stars good buy

This was my first Networking course. I found this text to be a good complement to the online material. While you could certainly pass the course without it, it presented the material in a different style, giving you an extra chance to grasp the concepts. For the most part it is well written and easy to follow. Based on my experience with this text and the curriculum as a whole I have decided to continue in the course sequence and pursue CCNA certification.

I would not bother purchasing the companion lab manual. All the necessary information is available in a pdf from the Cisco Networking Academy and can easily be printed (or simply read from the computer screen).

4 out of 5 stars Well written

I obviously bought this book for the CCNA class that I am taking. As textbooks go, this book is very well written and makes the understanding easier as you go through the class (as opposed to trying to do my reading online through the cisco academy). Highly recommend buying the book if you are taking the class.
