Cisco systems dominates the Internetworking scene at the beginning of the 21st century. This text is a guide to the Cisco Internetwork Design exam - the final step to attaining the Cisco Certified Design Professional certification (CCDP). Included is a CD which includes a testing engine.
Well, passed with a nice 922 out of 1000. Honestly, I read all of Todd Lammle's books for my Cisco tests, and I've yet to score below an 880! HIGHLY recommend this book (and other Sybex Cisco study guides) as they are easy to read, thorough, and don't have too many technical mistakes. Pair this with the (now defunct) Exam Cram series by Coriolis and you're ready to PASS!
Excellent complete resource and CCDP exam guide

This book is one of the few books out there that will actually fully prepare you for the very tough and poorly written Cisco CID exam. Take it from me (someone who has passed this exam) this book is a must have to pass the exam. Cisco has not revised this exam in a number of years and the amount of legacy technolgies on the exam will really trip you up. Robert Padjen does a very complete job of covering these technologies. Also by studying this book its been a helpfull introduction to technolgies covered in the CCIE written exam. Thank you Robert . You did a great job!
Comprehensive design guide for the real world and for test

This well-written book has a broad scope but still provides a lot of detail on a huge array of subjects, ranging from LAN design, remote-access networks, AppleTalk, Windows NT, WAN design, security, etc. The author clearly knows his stuff and writes in a clear and interesting style. The author does a great job of covering the outdated CID material sufficiently for test-takers while providing more up-to-date and real-world advice for actual network designers.
Great Read

I also agree that this book was an excellent study aid for the exam. It is very well written and related well to the exam. Robert Padjen is a great writer and I found this book to be one of my favorite's from all that I have read while gaining CCNA,CCDA,CCNP and now CCDP
Good Study Guide

I used this guide solely to pass the exam and give it five stars for that reason. Like all study guides, this one does not have complete coverage of material for the entire exam. Expect to rely on previous knowledge (also know as educated guessing) for about 20%.
