This book opens with a broad discussion of network topologies and standards. The OSI reference model is trotted out for explanation, as are all the IEEE 802 standards. In the context of planning a network, the authors discuss cabling (and wireless) options and network protocols. In deference to the contents of the exam, Casad and Newland weight their book toward Microsoft standards. One large chapter explains permissions, groups, security, and other administrative work on Microsoft networks.
Throughout the book, line drawings illustrate various concepts. Most of the illustrations are excellent, but some are just weird; for example, one illustration lists ASCII and EBCDIC characters in tiny type, without even listing their numeric equivalents. Each chapter concludes with exercises (to be performed on an actual machine or network) and quiz questions.
A companion CD-ROM contains practice-quiz software from Productivity Point International, a training company. The software helps you prepare for the actual format of the exam and keeps score for you as you progress through the questions.
- Loaded with insider tips, notes, and strategies from MCSEs and Microsoft Certified Trainers
- CD-ROM contains several Windows 95 and Windows NT test engines with hundreds of questions to prepare users for the actual tests
