Summary: Fabulous BOOK !!! No.1 in my bookshelf !!!
Review: Well i wonder how Laura writes good books, I used her ICRC book for my CCNA preparation and scored 92%. Now i am using her book again and hope to get good score again. This book covers all aspects of the ACRC exam, but a little less information about BGP. If u have Todd Lammle's ACRC book and Laura's ACRC book, then I think there is no way u are not going to pass this exam. Best of luck to all ACRC candidates :)

Summary: It is what I use to teach the class.
Review: Whether or not you pursue the CCNP certification router configuration is something that is a key to ensuring that your network is safe from the outside and the safety of the data is a prime concern of any network administrator. This 635 page guide is a great addition to my technical library with the information presented I was able to enhance my router knowledge for both network and training purposes. The book is broken into five parts with Part 1 covering the overview the scalable Internetwork. Part 2 delves into the topics of managing traffic, network congestion, setting up IP access lists, IPX/SPX and SAP access lists and setting up queuing to take care of traffic problems. Part 3 covers VLSM, Classless and Classful subletting, OSPF in both single and multiple areas, EIGRP and BGP protocols. Part 4 is the Dial-Up section with topics like WAN encapsulations, ISDN, DDR, PPP and HDLC. Finally part 5 the Non-Routing section where you learn about bridging techniques like source-routing, transparent and translational. The book is filled with actual examples of the code to make the understanding easier. Overall an excellent buy for the money.
