Cisco Networks: Engineers' Handbook of Routing, Switching
Introduction
Do you want to become a better and more efficient network engineer? If you answered yes to that question, then Cisco Networks: Engineers’ Handbook of Routing, Switching, and Security with IOS, NX-OS, and ASA is for you. You will learn intermediate and advanced concepts of configuring, managing, and troubleshooting Cisco networks. Most chapters provide examples of configuring network devices and include exercises to reinforce the concepts that were covered. Each exercise also includes a step-by-step solution to the question, in the event you are not able to solve the problem.
