Excellent reference manual for Nortel routers

This book is an excellent resource for those that have to maintain Nortel routers. Most of the Nortel router certification requirements are covered in this book. Ragho did an excellent job of providing in-depth information in an easy to understand format. Congratulations, Ragho, for a job well done!

ONE OF THE BEST NORTEL BOOK I HAVE SEEN!!

This book covers in depth everything you need to know about the current Nortel router products. If you are seriously interested in learning about the router technology in general or Nortel router products in detail, this is the best book I have seen. Mr. Mahalingam has organized the material so well, both beginners and experienced readers can benefit from it. The technology is explained in an easy to understand manner, but still covers all the details.I found the flow of chapters sequential. Best book to buy, worth the investment. You will find yourself pulling the book off the shelf over and over again. Kudos to Mr. Mahalingam for a job so well done!!

Required reading

Anything and everything you've ever wanted to know about the Nortel Networks router platform; this is the kind of reference which can only come from long experience - the author Ragho displays an in-depth knowledge of not only routing and routing protocols in general, but also of the Nortel router itself, its operating system, and its hardware. If you work with the Nortel routers (formerly Bay Network routers), this book is a must have!

A great, highly technical reference

I currently work at a large solutions provider, managing networks for clients that have installed Nortel equipment. This book has already assisted us with troubleshooting and design enhancement of some client networks. It is a compilation of knowledge that takes years to acquire. The author clearly has a comprehensive understanding of the product line and the technology. I learn something new each time I open the book. It's like having a hotline to Nortel's brightest engineers.

Outstanding Nortel Networks Reference

I am a field engineer who supports Nortel Networks Enterprise Routers. I find this book to be outstanding and it provides an in depth explanation of routing and it's protocols. This book to me is like receiving a Master's degree in Routing. This working maniscript gives you the confidence and the knowledge to approach a situation at a customers site and resolve the issue. I believe the person who wrote this book written it with the success of the field engineer in mind. My hat is off to the author of this book. Bravo, a job well done. Thank you....
