Novell Netware 6.5 CNA Exam Cram 2 Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Before taking this exam I had gone thru the 2000 some odd pages of the Novell 6.0 study guide for the CNA. Be careful in just using Novell's books. Supplement this information with Mr. Wyrostek's book, quite a few things are different on the 6.5 then the 6.0. You are going to need this book for the exam....

LAN Switch Security: What Hackers Know About Your Switches Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I really looked forward to reading LAN Switch Security (LSS), simply because it covered layer 2 issues. These days application security, rootkits, and similar topics get all the press, but the foundation of the network is still critical. Unfortunately, LSS disappointed me enough to warrant this three...

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I have never used the Exam Cram series books as a single source to prepare for any certification exam. I believe that their intent is to provide a good final review of the subject matter in preparation for an exam -- sort of like the old Cliff Notes that we used to buy in college. Coupled with the PrepLogic...

Cisco CID Exam Certification Guide Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I took the exam and did pass it. I was reading this book and was amazed with the errors and the references to graphs and charts that were not in the book. The book goes into a painfull explanation of SNA, which is more confusing then helping the issue. The voice part is readable but that just about it....
