The official study guide for the Cisco(r) CCNP and CCDP(r) Routing exam
Coverage of the CCNP and CCDP Routing exam topics enables you to identify and fill your knowledge gaps before the exam date. You'll learn about:
* Key routing information including classful and classless routing protocols, distance vector and link-state protocol operation, and the fields of the routing table * Extending IP addresses using VLSMs and route summarization and configuring IP helper address to manage broadcasts * Configuring OSPF in a single area and interconnecting multiple OSPF areas * Configuring EIGRP, how EIGRP supports the use of VLSM and route summarization, and how EIGRP operates in an NBMA environment * Configuring and implementing BGP in a scalable network, including how BGP policy-based routing works within an autonomous system, configuring route reflectors, BGP synchronization, BGP scalability, and prefix lists * Optimizing routing update operation by controlling routing update traffic, configuring route redistribution, and configuring policy-based routing
CCNP Routing Exam Certification Guide is a comprehensive study tool for the CCNP/CCDP(r) Routing exam. This exam evaluates your ability to build scalable, routed Cisco internetworks. This book covers all the major topics on the Routing exam, enabling you to master the concepts and technologies upon which you will be tested, including extending IP addresses, routing principles, scalable routing protocols, managing traffic and access, and optimizing scalable internetworks.
Each chapter of CCNP Routing Exam Certification Guide focuses your study and tests your knowledge of the subjects through specially designed assessment and study features. "Do I Know This Already?" quizzes assess your knowledge and help you decide how much time you need to spend on each section within a chapter. The well-organized Foundation Topics sections detail all the exam topics you need to master. Each chapter includes a Foundation Summary section that highlights essential concepts for quick reference and study. Challenging chapter-ending review questions and exercises test your knowledge of the subject matter, reinforce key concepts, and provide you with the opportunity to apply what you've learned in the chapter. In addition, a final chapter of scenarios pulls together concepts from all the chapters to ensure you can apply your knowledge in a real-world environment. Finally, the companion CD-ROM's robust testing engine enables you to take practice exams that mimic the real testing environment, focus on particular topic areas, randomize answers for reusability, track your progress, and refer to electronic text for review.

Customer Reviews & Comments This book series has an excellent format with questions before and after the chapter, followed up by a chapter summary and scenarios. The CD included contains the book in PDF format and test questions. This book in particular also included a glossary of terms, which I liked. Allot of command examples show only the command, missing the configuration location where the command should be entered. I wish more authors would be more considerate to detail that. There were a number of questions on BGP commands in the test engine that were not even covered in the material of the book. Some figures in the book did not mach the text ect. Some examples and scenarios were just flat out sloppy wrong. I also had apprehensions when I learned that the author would be using company case studies to present the topics of the chapter, but their usage was very light and unnoticeable. Occasionally, I felt like the author assumed knowledge that should have been explained. Chapter 3 on hierarchical IP addressing was very well done. It really presented the next step from what was learned in the CCNA exam track. I needed to supplement with other materials to cover the missing continuity of the chapters that dealt with BGP and controlling route updates. The coverage of OSPF and EIGRP was sufficiently understandable. Overall this is a great study guide that would deserve 5 stars if it weren't for the number of mistakes.
