About this title

Review

One of the elective tests available to Microsoft Certified Software Engineer (MCSE) candidates, the TCP/IP exam (70-059) verifies your understanding of the TCP/IP protocol and your ability to configure TCP/IP services under Windows NT. With Internet operations becoming increasingly important to the managers of organizational networks, an MCSE who has passed the TCP/IP test often gets the nod instead of a candidate without this certification.

Exam Prep: TCP/IP helps you prepare for the TCP/IP exam by guiding you through subjects ranging from packet architecture to the proper configuration of routers, bridges, servers, and workstations. When you complete this book, you'll be ready to create a TCP/IP-based local area network (LAN) under Windows NT and connect that LAN to the Internet. You'll also be set for troubleshooting, administration, and other ongoing tasks. Everything Microsoft mentions in its guidelines for TCP/IP study appears in this book.

Like the MCSE TCP/IP exam, this book focuses on implementations of the Internet protocols under Windows NT--you'll find some stuff in this book useful under other operating systems, but not much. Of course, that's appropriate in a study guide for a Microsoft exam, but as a practical matter, you'll want another TCP/IP guide if your network involves Unix or other operating systems.

The exam preparation features here are very good. Each chapter concludes with a summary, some multiple-choice questions, and a handful of laboratory-style exercises. Answers to the questions and suggested solutions to the exercises appear on the companion CD-ROM, which also includes quiz software that simulates the actual exam. --David Wall
