The basis of all Cisco Certification is the CCNA and as such there is an abundance of material out there. This software in particular has both the CD and DVD included to help in the learning process.

Installation was a snap and I was up and running in minutes and the 2 plus hours of video information included on the DVD was nothing short of amazing. The material is self paced, easy to follow along and the instructions are in a step by step guide.

Following along the video you'll learn how to setup and work with VLANs, Switches, version 12.0 of the IOS, subnetting, static and dynamic routes, access lists, of which the coverage of IPX lists are a little on the light side, ISDN and Frame Relay.

The CD-rom using the ExamSim testing software has over 375 questions to practice with before going live and an e-book of the Osborne CCNA Study guide to use along with everything else. Overall for the money this seems a viable alternative to formal classroom training.

I just finished viewing the DVD. It just goes over the main topics equivalent to just reading the topics of the chapters and moving on. If you really want to pass this test you need to read the book, so if you like a HTML version e-book feel free to buy,otherwise it is cheaper to purchase the book.
