Review:

Like its sister publication on IP, Volume II of Cisco IOS Solutions for Network Protocols doesn't go easy on the acronyms. The book devotes chapters to each of the networking protocols, namely Novell's IPX, Macintosh's AppleTalk, Apollo Domain, Banyan VINES, DECNet, IOS CLNS, and XNS. The book enumerates how to implement routing using IOS, Cisco's equipment, and various routing protocols. With slavish attention to detail through numerous notes, tables, graphics, and configuration examples, the book provides a priceless insight into configuring your own systems.

A large chunk of this installment wades through IPX and AppleTalk, which are considered more mainstream networking protocols than the rest. The particulars of AppleTalk networking and routing are outlined, right down to the number of devices that can be supported on a Macintosh network. With insider tips, such as how to implement IP-style access lists and ways to fine-tune network performance, the book does a phenomenal job of explaining AppleTalk.

An equally impressive effort is evident in the IPX chapters. Though not the dominant force it once was, Novell's IPX is still resident on many networks and has numerous idiosyncrasies, all of which are addressed. Novell's Link-State Routing Protocol (NLSP), Service Advertising Protocol (SAP) issues, and configuring maximum hop counts are all faced with vigor. You'll find the other discussions just as thorough, no matter how obscure the protocol. This entry in Cisco's reference library keeps the watermark high. --Sarah L. Roberts-Witt
