5.0 out of 5 starsAwesome Reference
By jake M on July 10, 2003
Format: Paperback
I am a Network Engineer with about 6 years experience in networking and systems. This book is really cool. I have worked on so many networks that needed to be repaired and I wish I had this book years ago when I started learning. This book will not fail you. You will learn how to use the Sniffer, Troubleshoot with it, analyze with it, and best yet, you learn how to find problems in networks and this book tells you how to fix or redesign based on what the problem is. This is one of the better troubleshooting books I have seen. I also like the fact that the authors all work for fortune 500 companies, are certified as Sniffer Experts and CCIE level, how can you go wrong with this book? Hope this helps you as this book has helped me.

4.0 out of 5 starsThis book is really helpful
By Jacob on October 19, 2002
Format: Paperback
I wanted to write a review to say that I have used this book, and I think it is really helpful. I would have given it 5 stars only if it had gotten deeper into filters, but according to the Sniffer objectives for the exam - you really didnt have to get too deep into filters - but it would have helped more as a reference. Also, this book not only helped me to pass my SCP test, but has helped me with the SCE exams too which was an unexpected bonus. I pretty much passed my first SCE exam with this book and some online resources. This book is a cool read and I hope you find it helpful too for your SCP.

5.0 out of 5 starsAwesome guide for getting to know Sniffer Pro
By W. Schmied on August 22, 2002
Format: Paperback
A great all-in-one resource for those who need to get familiar with Sniffer Pro. Being relatively new to Sniffer Pro, I was unsure what book to pick up for it, but I am very happy with this one!
Using this book takes you from the very simple foundations of Sniffer Pro, to installing it and using it, to performing advanced configuration and usage on networks of varying types including ethernet and token ring. This is the best book I have seen for getting up to speed with Sniffer Pro and looks to be a sound investment when it comes time to approach the SCP exam.

5.0 out of 5 starsConcise, detailed book with good examples
By Richard on April 29, 2003
Format: Paperback
I have been using this book on the job for a couple of months now, and it has greatly helped me take advantage of the most powerful Sniffer features. The authors do a great job of explaining how everything works and then showing you with real examples from a production network. This makes it much easier to apply the knowledge to your own network. The guy from Canada who slammed the book and complained that the authors aren't Sniffer certified must not have read the the page where it says the Technial Editor and lead authors are both SCE/SCPs.

5.0 out of 5 starsCool book on a cool product!
By Gus on October 1, 2002
Format: Paperback
I've been a HUGE fan of Sniffer for years. I use it ALLTHE TIME to figure out and fix stuff on my networks. I learned how to use it by playing around with it--which is always fun, and reading what I could find on the Web. I never saw a real book on Sniffer Pro before, so I figured I would see what the experts had to say. These guys helped me out a TON with this book. I knew how to do a lot of things before, but now withe this book I think I know it ALL. Thanks :)

5.0 out of 5 starsVery useful book
By Rick Malloy on September 26, 2002
Format: Paperback
I have a lot of experience using Sniffer Pro, so I was actually a little surprised at how much I learned reading this book. The authors do a great job explaining all the functionality and configurations of Sniffer Pro, but the really useful parts for me were all of the examples and scenarios that are used to teach some more advanced troubleshooting and security techniques. These are the skill you really need to develop to effectively use this product.

5.0 out of 5 starsBook I've been waiting for!
By Jason on August 26, 2002
Format: Paperback
I've been using Sniffer Pro as one of the tools to troubleshoot my network for several years. But, I never had the time (or money!) to take a course to really LEARN all the things you can do with it. This books is great because it doesn't just show you how to configure and use all the features, it tells you what the traffic data actually means, and how to interpret the info. to solve problems. This book is worht the money to buy it and the time to read it.
