CCNA Certification AIO For Dummies 1st Edition

very informative and it has all you need to earn your ccna

Great book thought it was the updated version of the CCNA 220-301, it’s kind of old but still very informative. Who ever loves learning about Cisco networking, this is a must have for your collection!!!

This book is full of great information. I have received a computer networking with Cisco emphasis certificate degree at a community college. This is more of a review for me before I take the CCNA. I must say I enjoy the way the author presents the information, but this book does have faults. I have read the 5 star reviews, and it is alarming to me that most people have not picked up on the mistakes in the book. I understand no one is perfect, but when preparing for an exam I do not want to see typos and misprints in my study guide. Although the mistakes were not major, it still alarmed me and made me question the reliability of some information.Overall, everything was great, but we will see when I go to take the actual CCNA. If I pass this book will get a 5 star rating regardless of the flaws it has. The purpose of the book is to pass the CCNA and if I can do that with the help of this book, then who I am to rate it any less than perfect.

I have pretty much read through this exam guide cover-to-cover and must say this is a solid book for preparing for the CCNA exam. I have 10+ years experience in the IT field and I am using this guide to polish up my Cisco skills and earn my CCNA. This book also doubles as a nice desk reference when not studying for the test. At about 1000 pages (Holy Bible size and weight ;-), the book contains a wealth of Cisco and networking knowledge, lots of practice test questions as well. I recommend it for dummies and non-dummies alike!

A very comprehensive and well organized CCNA study guide that answers all of the questions you will see on the CCNA test. Also comes with a CD with three separate practice test that you can take. The writing is fresh and interesting and the authors keep things moving along. If you are only going to read one book before taking your CCNA, get this book!

This book is by no means an exhaustive resource to pass the CCNA which is why I gave it the primer title. I recently read CCENT for dummies before this, which by the way, is an excellent resource to help pass the ICND1. Without reading that, I could imagine this book to be very, very difficult for a real beginner. Other than than that, it's a great book to get a good overall picture of each topic, I will definitely be using this book as a resource in the future if I feel I need to brush up on a topic. Overall a good book but I found the WAN section at the end to be poorly written, precisely because WAN was never a strong point of mine and this book did absolutely nothing to help me clear up the topic. Overall I give it 3 stars and wish for authors of the dummies series to truly write books for dummies else write your book under a different name.

The book arrived when it said it would. It was exactly how the seller describe. It's definitely a great book if you are pursuing your CCNA. Only thing I wish, is that it came with a simulator that would definitely give it a "perfection" status but other than that, this is a definite "must have"!!!

Not sure if I am being fair by giving this book a stars qualification, the book is intended to cover CCNA broadly enough as for preparing a regular IT pep for the CCNA certification or at least introduce him/her to the subworld of networking within IT, you'll definitively need some background in computers and networking for taking a substantial advantage of it, it is going to help you for sure if you are usual to IT, otherwise I wouldn't recommend it to a naive beginner, anyway I like the book, I'd call it a 4 and a half stars.
