Whether you're prepping for the super-tough CCIE exam, gearing up for Cisco implementation, expanding a network, or just trying to avoid communications congestion, this indispensable guide hands you... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Being most excellent practical introduction into IP routing I have ever seen the book covers most of the cases which you might encounter in a mid-sized network or on a CCIE exam. All the cases are well illustrated and complemented with real configurations and printouts. For me the most remarkable part of the book is Chapter 6 - "Integrating Multiple Routing Protocols". If you're a looking from theoretical prespective or a start-up book on IOS - this is the wrong book for you.I have to say that there are two major issues that are not covered - large and complex OSPF networks and the secrets and mysteries of BGP.Anyway, if I have to buy this book once again - I'll do it! Add (do not substitute) to it the information from Cisco's web site and you're all set! Good luck!
Rocks!!

I have been studying "Advanced IP Routing in Cisco Networks" intensely in preparation for the CCIE lab exam. It is an excellent practical guide, full of labs and complete router configs, and practical wisdom and insight--the kind of insight that separates the experts from the non-experts. It is top-notch. One of the best on my bookshelf! Buy it. Study it intensely. It's like having two senior CCIEs standing over your shoulder pointing out hidden pitfalls and explaining their router configs to you. When I pass the CCIE lab exam, I know that it will be in part because I studied this book so thoroughly and carefully.
Excellent, a must read before taking the CCIE lab.

A solid well organized discussion of IP routing. Examples, with Cisco configuration scripts, cover the little tricks that make the difference between success and failure. The fundamentals are also covered in detail.
Tremendous! All working configs--WOW!

This is a great book for those studying for their CCIE. It's also great for those who just want to know routing better. The authors obviously have a solid grasp of the subject and an excellent ability to convey that knowledge to the reader. McGraw-Hill is quickly becoming the leader in CCIE prep books with this title, Chris Lewis's book on Cisco configurations, and Parkhurst's book on routing.
