Product Description

From Amazon

Here's a book that clearly and concisely explains the low-level internetworking concepts that make the Internet go. If you read Internetworking Cisco Network Devices and come to understand its subject matter, you'll be well prepared to pass the Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) exam (640-507) and do a bang-up job at most any networking job you choose to pursue. This book explains Internet-standard data communications protocols (the TCP/IP suite and routing algorithms particularly) in terms of their implementations on Cisco routers, switches, and software systems. By doing so, it prepares you to install, configure, manage, and troubleshoot Cisco equipment.

If you're starting from near zero on the networking knowledge scale (and even if you're not), you'll likely want to read this book from beginning to end. The authors lay down a conceptual foundation (including excellent coverage of the Open Systems Interconnection reference model) in early chapters, and subsequently proceed to place Cisco-specific knowledge on top of that base. The text frequently seems dry, but it's clear that the authors and editors went to considerable trouble to get their facts right and drive home the big concepts with illustrations. Test-preparation aids are limited to a dozen or so review questions (with brief, minimally annotated answers at the back of the book), so it's clear that this book is about knowing the material, not preparing for an artificial test. It does readers a service. --David Wall

Topics covered: The contents of the Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) exam (640-507), which verifies knowledge of interconnections among networks as implemented with Cisco equipment running Internet-standard protocols. Coverage spans selection of hardware from the Cisco line, cabling, configuring Internetwork Operating System (IOS), setting up switched networks with Catalyst 1900 switches, and establishing virtual local area networks (VLANs). Plenty of coverage goes to TCP/IP under Cisco gear, including routing protocols, the configuration of routes, and point-to-point communication over wide area network (WAN) links of various kinds.

Book Description

Cisco Systems Cisco Career Certification program has been updated and now includes new courses and exams that cover updates to products, technology, and solutions. Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices (ICND)is a new recommended training course producted by Cisco Worldwide Training for the new CCNA exam #640-507. This new course is an amalgam of the previously recommeded courses for CCNA- Introduction to Cisco Router Configuration (ICRC), Cisco Routing and LAN Switching (CRLS), and High-Performance Solutions for Desktop Connectivity (HPSDC). Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices presents the concepts, commands, and practice required to configure Cisco switches and routers in multiprotocol internetworks. Readers get information to identify and recommend the best Cisco solutions for small to medium-sized businesses. The book introduces all of the basic configuration procedures to build a multirouter, multigroup internetwork that uses LAN and WAN interfaces for the most commonly used routing and routed protocols. ICND provides the installation, configuration, and troubleshooting information that network support engineers and designers need to install and configure the latest Cisco products. There are no books available that can compete with the official Cisco training class materials provided in this Coursebook.

4.0 out of 5 stars EXACT SAME book as ICND for 640-507, Feb 3 2003
By 
"tonyp102" (Yorktown, VA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices (Textbook Binding)
The book didn't change, except for the cover. I compared the 640-507 book with the new one for 640-607 and the info is, page-for-page, exactly the same. You can turn to page XX in one book and the exact same info is on page XX of the other book. See, the ICND material didn't change. The only thing that Cisco changed was the format of the test (640-607 has the material weighted differently; Cisco.com might explain this better) and (I think) the passing score is higher. So, if you want to study for the new test, use the same ICND book, but the NEW Cisco Press study guide for 607 instead of the old 507 guide.

3.0 out of 5 stars Careful if you think this is the v3.0 exam book..., Dec 24 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices (Textbook Binding)
There is a new version of this book being advertised by Cisco Press under the same ISBN number for exam 640-607... this is *not* it!!! Still useful, but it's plain as day on the cover, this book is for 640-507, not the new exam.

What do you use for 640-607? Dunno since Cisco Press is giving the wrong ISBN... tell the world when you find out :)

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty basic book on Cisco., Dec 7 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices (Textbook Binding)
The information contained in this book is fairly basic for anyone but a complete beginner. There is no coverage of IP routing protocols. If you want to take it a step (or two) further, check out "Cisco IOS for IP Routing" by Andrew Colton. That book will get you up to speed with dynamic IP routing and should give at least the CCNP level information on Cisco routing.
