The small format paperback follows the stated objectives of the Cisco certification exam. Each chapter groups related objectives and drills down to present the important terms and concepts behind each of them. Although brief explanatory text accompanies each concept, the structure is best utilized as a jumping-off point for further study with other resources. The chapters frequently include a "Necessary Procedures" section that offers a brief list of the types of operations you should be prepared to perform. In this book, these procedures are most frequently router configuration commands.
Sample questions anchor each chapter, but there are usually only one or two to test your knowledge. As a review tool, this book complements the related Sybex Study Guide for this exam well. It's also a handy text for working network professionals who possess the knowledge but need a review for certification. --Stephen W. Plain
