Re: static route question
Im actually reading the BSCI CCNP book right now which I believe covers most of the same topics correct?
If not, I will get to that book after this one.
Thanks alot. |

| Those CCNP BSCI books may cover the same topics. However the BSCI books don't have the same feel or the same flow either.
The BSCI books typically are just dumping routing theories off Cisco website or off prior edition of BSCI books with probably some additions. In other words, BSCI books are just made in rush to make a quick buck without actually putting a real genuine efforts from the "real engineers" to create a decent book.
The Alex Zinin book however provides "the real meat" that every Cisco certified engineers including CCNA certified people must know cold.
For a complete understanding of routing topics, you may want to read both Alex Zinin and the CCNP books. |

| I haven't read that one, I've found the following two books to be pretty much all encompassing on routing protocols:
CCIE Professional Developement Routing TCP/IP Volumes 1 and 2. Both by Jeff Doyle and Jennifer Carroll.
The first is mostly IGPs and some fundamentals. The second focuses on BGP, Multicast, redistribution, etc. They are basically mainstays for CCIE studies and such are extremely detailed. However, I always found the basic Cisco Press books to be an easier read.
Obviously there are more complete books on each individual technology, but these are pretty good. |
