5.0 out of 5 stars There needs to be more stars!!!, April 17, 2009
This review is from: CCNP Quick Reference (Paperback)
For those of you that are looking to either brush up, or have a better understanding on Cisco Concepts. I can not say enough good about this book.

First it is broken by Cert. BSCI, BSMSN, ISCW, and ONT. I was able to better understand the concepts because they are explained clearly, and plainly. They removed all the fluff language. Everything is stripped down to plain and simple understanding. Because of this approach, I was able to pass the certs, and my prep time was cut down. I do have all the text books for the certification. I actually stopped reading them because of some of the confusion they bring to me.

This book should have ten times the price. More then worth the asking price. The knowledge in there is invaluable.
