Cisco Networking Essentials

This is a great read for anyone looking to purchase, some of the technologies may have changed ,however the convenance of idea by the author makes this book a positive addition to a technophile

I recently explored the Cisco Networking Essentials course, and it provides a solid foundation for anyone new to networking. The course covers the basics thoroughly, including essential networking concepts, protocols, and Cisco equipment. It’s well-structured and offers a clear introduction to networking principles, which is perfect if you’re starting from scratch.The practical exercises and real-world scenarios are particularly useful. They help in applying theoretical knowledge and give you a better understanding of how networking principles work in practice. If you’re aiming for a Cisco certification or just want to bolster your networking skills, this course is a good starting point.However, for those looking for advanced networking concepts or more in-depth material, this course might feel a bit basic. It’s designed to be accessible and introductory, so while it’s excellent for beginners, it may not delve deeply into more complex topics or provide extensive hands-on labs.

Love it. Useful for my studies

It's a quick guide to understand the concept and architecture of networking. It's also a great material for entry-level people to get there.

Excellent book, I hope the movie is just as good!

Good book, easy to understand

I haven't had a chance to read too much of this book, as I am stilling consuming a large portion of the Cisco Press ICND1 book. I did, however, read the entire first edition of this book and it was great. This book is no different. This is an excellent book for someone who is very new to networking and Cisco. If you take your time to read and comprehend everything you definitely will learn new knowledge from this book.

Great book, I compared the topic of this book with the Cisco requirements for CCENT certification exam and all topics are covered. Beyond the CCENT exam, this book is an excellent foundation to build on a career in networking.

Original y en perfecto estado

Its really well structured and explained. And actually quite an confy read, even though it basically covers the CCENT half (ICND1) of the CCNA.I would still recommend also studying from another source though, such as the official Cisco CCNA book.Can also be recommended as Pre-prep for CCNA (read it before the REAL study period begins) - it would make life a lot easier for you, andfor people just interested in Network Administration in general, with some of the Cisco particulars (which are still quite useful)Also - the kindle edition is in 2nd edition, and quite well edited. Not a big mess, as some otherwise decent guides are ...

Feels like a good quality printing. It's relatively large, and very informative. I needed this for an into networking course and found that it was very informative. It's also very dense with information, so many parts may take multiple reads, but there is a lot to learn from this book.

Arrived promptly and just what my son required for his course.

Got this book to help with my studies but most of the information is out of date and as a result Google was of equal value. Can't recommend while, author has done a good job time has moved on.
