3.0 out of 5 stars the typoes make you think, May 24, 2000

This review is from: Cisco & IP Addressing CCIEPrep.com (Paperback)

The authors explain the concepts well. However, there are numerous typoes. Which can lead to confusion, or it can make you think it through.

After reading other titles along with this one, you can spot mistakes and work them out. It's kind of like an exercise with the bonus of a good explanation to go with it.
