5.0 out of 5 stars This book hits the target, December 3, 1999

Bryan Fish (United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Clsc Exam Certification Guide (Cisco Career Certification) (Hardcover)

This Guide is indispensable in preparing for the CLSC Certification. The book achieves an effective balance between conceptual and "hands-on" discussions. These discussions are skillfully mapped to real-world enterprise networking issues, empowering the reader with practical knowledge that can be directly applied, both on the exam and in the real world. This book is a must-have in the toolkit of the CLSC-bound networking professional.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Study Guide and Cisco Switching Reference, November 30, 1999

Tim Reynolds (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Clsc Exam Certification Guide (Cisco Career Certification) (Hardcover)

This book walks you through the CLSC curriculum providing detailed explanations of terminology, switching concepts and sample configurations that will help you understand and digest Cisco Switching. This is the first book to provide the reference and study material necessary to prepare for the Cisco CLSC Exam #640-404, without this book you will have to rely on using the CLSC classroom text, lab guides, and Cisco Manuals which, in my opinion, lack sufficient explanation and detail needed to prepare for the exam. If you are preparing for the CLSC Exam this book will defenitely help.

This review is from: Clsc Exam Certification Guide (Cisco Career Certification) (Hardcover)

Finally, a good resource for Cisco's CLSC exam and Catalyst products. I appreciated the level of detail and focus on enterprise configurations. This book contains insightful information that I found very useful.
