4.0 out of 5 stars Good material, but a little sloppy, July 27, 2006
By J. Sullivan (Arlington, VA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book provides a good overview of lots of BGP concepts. Example configs and diagrams make some of the more complex concepts easier to understand. The only complaint I have is that there are lots of grammatical, spelling and content errors. I wonder if anyone proofed this before it was published.
