Title: CCNP Routing Exam Certification Guide by Clare Gough ISBN: 1-58720-001-5 Publisher: Cisco Press Pub. Date: 26 January, 2001 Format: Hardcover Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $49.95 |

Rating: 3
Summary: An Okay Book.
Comment: I rated it three stars because it did not live up to my expectations. I just took the routing exam and passed using this book as my sole study guide. The writing lacks humor unlike some of the american-authored technical books. I had to read some of the paragraphs several times just to understand it. Okay, I'll list down all the things I hate about this book: 1. There are quite a few mistakes. 2. The diagrams are not very accurate. 3. The commands in the example doesn't include the prompt. 4. It's too long.
Given that it is long, the contents are still not enough for you to be able to answer all the questions in the exam. I guess you really have to have a hands-on experience of the routing protocols to get a higher score. But I think this book is still better than the Sybex book because it has more and better coverage of the exam topics. Also, Gough said in the book that Route Maps are not included in the exam, DON'T BELIEVE HER, it's there! I almost had a heart attack when i saw one question about it. I didn't pay much attention to Route maps because I believed in what the author said.

Summary: Not the best, but it did help
Comment: This book made so much more sense to me only after I read Todd Lamels CCNP Routing book. It has about the same info., but Todds books are so much clearer and easier to read. This book just jumps from one thing to another, it does not flow. I used this book for the new BSCI exam, I know it dosn't cover IS-IS and yes IS-IS is heavily tested on the exam, I got at least six questions. I would suggest using this book as only one of your resources. there were at least three questions I can think of that I could only find the answers in this book. I have passed two exams so far using these three resources: Todd Lamels books, Cisco press books (as a Reference),and Boson practice questions.
Rating: 1
Summary: It's a waste of time to read the book
Comment: I totally agree with all of the bad comments on this book. I spent more than a month to read through it because I trusted it to be a good book. However during this period too much of my effort were spent on struggling with those misleading presentations and mistakes in the book. I kept looking up in white papers and other materials to make myself understand those topics. When I eventually understand everything, I concluded that the studying experience would be much much less frustrating and time-consuming if I chose a better book.
