Product Description

With the introduction in June 2003 of the CCNA 640-801 and ICND 640-811 exams, Cisco Systems also introduced the newest version of the Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices (ICND) course. CCNA Self-Study: Interconnecting Cisco Network Devices (ICND), Second Edition is a Cisco authorized self-paced learning tool that helps CCNA candidates prepare for the new CCNA exams.
This book is the second edition of the best-selling title for early-stage CCNA preparation. It is designed in exclusive cooperation with Cisco Systems, and it is the only title authorized by Cisco for self-study learning of the ICND course concepts. Coverage includes a review of the OSI model, routers and switches, Cisco IOS software, command line interface, WAN, and ISDN and Frame Relay.
The CCNA program certifies that a professional can install, configure, and operate LAN, WAN, and dial access services for small networks (100 nodes or fewer). It is considered one of the most valuable IT certifications and has been growing in popularity over the last several years.

Customer Reviews & Comments
Cisco has broken down the CCNA exam in to 2 separate exams and the 640-811 is the ICND exam. What this book offers you is a decent chance of passing the exam and with other books in the Self Study Series you should do fine. The book does a good of breaking down the objectives and I like the section quizzes, although you could add more questions. The section for configuring switches is also excellent as well as the section on VLAN setup and configuration. What is missing is some sort of simulator to allow you to practice and I think this should be added in any future editions. I found the book detailed and technically accurate with the material that is presented. One thing I have always found with Cisco Press is that the wording in some section is little above the intro level that is associated with CCNA. The author has done a fairly good job of making sure each exam objective is covered, in fact this book can be used for the 640-801 CCNA exam as well. Along with the missing simulator there is no practice exam software either, and with those two things added this book would be a great go resource to have. Overall a few fixes and additions and you should be ready to rock.
