Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com Review
Despite its reputation as the easiest of the MCSE mandatory exams, the Networking Essentials test is not to be sneezed at. Loaded with questions about network topologies, protocols, and security, the test has its share of pitfalls. This book can help you prepare, though you'll find the same information in other books of the same series.
The authors have organized their book around Microsoft's outline of exam objectives. Early chapters explain what computer networks are and why they're useful to organizations; intermediate chapters explain the OSI network model, topologies, protocols, and network operating systems. The book then progresses into cabling, network interface cards, hubs and repeaters, wide area networks, security, and network management. The coverage provided here is complete and touches on everything in the Microsoft statement of what's on the test. An excellent companion CD-ROM includes a searchable version of the book's text as well as some great test-simulator software.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Reasonably thorough, not the only study guide to use however,
By A Customer
This review is from: MCSE Networking Essentials Study Guide (Exam 70-58) (Hardcover)
Read and studied the material. Took some test exams. Found I needed more. Borrowed the Microsoft Net Essential study guide to get the remainder of what I needed. Used the Exam Cram Net Essential for review. Passed the exam first try!

This review is from: MCSE Networking Essentials Study Guide (Exam 70-58) (Hardcover)
There are better books out there but this is OK, it seemed to be beaten up here but I did not think is was *that* bad. I am putting the book up on EBAY though to buy more books. So this isn't a save-it-for-the-grandchildren book, I did pass the test how much this book helped is hard to tell.

Don't be misled.,
By A Customer
This review is from: MCSE Networking Essentials Study Guide (Exam 70-58) (Hardcover)
I have read QUE's book, but I also bought this one because the cover touts to have more than 1000 sample questions. I thought it would be great practice. It turns out that it includes sample questions for all four core topics. There are only 366 questions pertaining to Exam 70-58, including the chapter questions. I feel cheated. The topics in the book are all over the place. No logical sequence.
