Customer Reviews

Excellent CCNA reading materials

Anyone pursing the 2 test CCNA option must have this as well as the ICND1 book. Passed the ICND1 exam with my eyes closed after reading this book a couple of times.

Great - pair this with test questions and you'll pass on first try.

This book is the authority on all topics required to pass ICND2. Every little detail on the test is covered by this book. Here's the best part - it reads very well. Its not full of fluff or unnecessary text that the author added it just to beef up the book. Wendel is straight and to the point. After you're done reading this, do about 300-400 practice questions only on the ICND2 topics; I did, and I passed ICND2 on the first try.

CCNA ICND2 by Wendell Odom is an ideal book for ICND part 2 exam

I studied this book for 3 months in order to pass the exam 640-816 (ICND exam part2). I got the exam score of 862. Wendell's explanation for LAN switching is simply awesome. Normally Layer2 Switching seems to be very difficult in the exam and it is time consuming rather IP Routing. Since I don't have much experience in Cisco catalyst switches/routers, I am looking for the best certification guide and found out this Wendell's book, that leads to earn CCNA certification for me within short amount of time. Usually Layer 2 stuff are more difficult to troubleshoot than Layer 3 stuff in real world networking. If you studied this book thoroughly, you have earned very solid foundation especially for Layer 2 Switching. The author needs to focus more on VLSM/Route summarization coverage. Even if you don't have experience in the networking field but you want to have certification means, My recommendation would be: Buy this book and keep go throughing every line for Switching, Routing and WAN sections, in addition to that please don't forget to revise BOSON exam questions in CD/DVD comes along with this book.

Review, some errors

Good book, I don't know why i'm writing a review- it has some errors which were kind of frustrating, however they provided some links to point out all the typos.

Looks great, so far.

I just got this book last week and find it very detailed and well written. I just started my fourth semester at my local college for CCNA training and thought this book would be a good extra resource. This book is designed more for somebody studying on their own. Well written, very detailed, good practice exams and 2 CDs. I'll update my review if my opinion changes.
