I found this book a good study tool. I'd suggest getting the Cisco courseware book as well. The Lammle cram book was really thin in comparison. His larger study guides are a nice companion to the exam cram books. Do not skip the basic troubleshooting module. I underestimated how much this would be on the test. Memorizing commands doesn't work. Also I'd suggest taking this test last after all the rest. They lay a good base for this one.

Excellent book to confirm if you know all the material learned from either the Cisco and/or Sybex Cisco Internetworking Troubleshooting books. With the vast amount of information covered, its difficult to know what you retained, if anything. This book verifies that, I have the Cisco Press book by Laura Chappel, and about 70% of the material learned, was reinforced with this book. Good work, keep it up.

Succinctly summarizes command wording & formats. Unfortunately, that's only 15-20% of the test. Most of the practice questions are nowhere near the difficulty level/ambiguity level of the Cisco test. Gives false sense of mastery of material. I think this is what they wish the test could be like. Several errors, always recheck against other sources. (i.e. Luallen thinks RTMP is a link state protocol on a test question.) Once again, use as a supplement to the official Cisco courseware, Cisco Press book, or years of experience. But do not rely on it alone to pass the test. P.S. It is written for 640-440.

This book helped me understand the material required for the CIT test (as I passed with over a 900/1000 score). Although the book could have gone into more detail in some areas, the conciseness of it can also make it that much easier for last minute studying.

Good for review of learned material, I read this book the week before I took the Exam and pass.

Why do the author's comments above refer to exam 640-440 but the book cover says exam 640-406?

a good book/manual for anyone that deals with cisco, wether your an avid networker or a novice.

The CIT exam just came out. What is the 640-440 exam? IS this the wrong book for the CIT?

Not enough info to pass the exam. Reads like War and Peace. Seems like the author has an attitude.
