3.0 out of 5 stars This book helps but not enough to prepare for exam., March 12, 2002

This review is from: CCNA Exam Prep Guide (Book w/CD) (TestTaker's Guides) (Paperback)

This book gives only very brief introduction to prepare for the ccna exam. The questions presented in this book are over-simplified.

Generally it helps clarify some concepts if you are novice to cisco routers or switches. So make sure you have other sources of study materials as well.

In fact, cisco is releasing new examination 640-607 to replace 640-507 from 12 March 2002.

This review is from: CCNA Exam Prep Guide (Book w/CD) (TestTaker's Guides) (Paperback)

It appears that some of the questions are from the previous version of the exam, since some of the commands mentioned in this book are not found in either the official Cisco course material or ICND coursebook (McQuerry).

The publisher clearly did not do a sufficiently thorough job of checking the text for typos. An obvious one is p.139 showing router B's ip route using 198.16.4.2 which is completely impossible, because the subnet is not mentioned in the example.

Many of the questions have obvious answers which would not be the case in the actual CCNA exam. The exam is harder than this book's questions.

Overall, the book is somewhat useful for practicing exams, but for the reasons mentioned above, do not use it as your sole means of practising for the exam.

Also, the book only has fill-in-the-blank questions and multiple choice. The actual #640-507 exam has drag and drop questions.
