Product Review
Windows networks don't exist in a vacuum. If you're planning to connect multiple Windows 2000 computers (as well as machines running older versions of Windows) on a network--and who isn't?--you need to make sure those computers can see and identify each other, and that they can share information speedily and securely. MCSE Training Kit: Designing a Microsoft Windows 2000 Network Infrastructure helps you understand how to build Windows networks from the ground up, and how to integrate Windows services into existing local and wide area networks (LANs and WANs). What's more, the book includes review and self-quiz sections that are meant to prepare you for the Microsoft Network Infrastructure exam (#70-221), which you have to pass if you're after the Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer (MCSE) certification.
This book derives its organization from Microsoft's published objectives for the Network Infrastructure exam. In taking on each objective, the authors--internal Microsoft documentation writers--explain the engineering question at stake (such as how best to optimize Microsoft Proxy Server for Internet access) before explaining alternative solutions with pros and cons for each. Because this book--and the test it prepares its readers for--is concerned with questions of design, how-to instructions and screen shots are less important than network diagrams and design worksheets. The companion CD-ROM includes a timed evaluation copy of Windows 2000 Advanced Server, as well as a searchable electronic copy of the text and a key to access online review questions. --David Wall
Topics covered: The published objectives of the Windows 2000 Network Infrastructure exam (#70-221), including analysis of customer requirements, design of addressing schemes, multiprotocol routing, and remote-access solutions.
Book Description
This official MCSE TRAINING KIT teaches IT professionals how to design a network infrastructure in Windows 2000-as they prepare for MCP Exam 70-221, a core elective on the Windows 2000 MCSE track. The kit balances conceptual information with practical application: students learn through an integrated system of skill-building tutorials, case study examples, and self-assessment tools. Topics map directly to the objectives measured by the MCSE exam, including analyzing business requirements; evaluating technical requirements; designing a network infrastructure in Windows 2000; planning for Internet connectivity; designing a wide area network infrastructure; and creating a strategy for implementing, monitoring, and managing network services. Business scenario examples help students apply the concepts they learn to real-world work situations. An economical alternative to classroom instruction, this MCSE TRAINING KIT enables students to set their own pace and learn by doing!
Customer Reviews & Comments
While the information in the book is revelant and provides a good foundation for study, the format leaves much to be desired. Especially cumbersome is the lab format, which requires a great deal of writing and can only be graded with use of the included CD. This makes it difficult to study on the road. This is a good study guide, but it should not be your only one.
