An exam guide for candidates of the CCNP Support exam - a requirement for the CCNP (Cisco Certified Network Professional). The text maps to official Cisco exam objectives and the accompanying CD includes a bonus exam, electronic flash cards, and an evaluation version of Visio software.
This is a good book with a lot of relevant information; I definitely recommend it to others. However, it does have a few errors and the sample questions are not as difficult at the actual exam. I found that the exam itself was poorly worded and confusing. It seems weird to fault the book for having better grammar and logic in their sample questions then the actual test...but, whoever said life was fair.
CCNA Study guide

Brilliant book, I passed CCNA exam yesterday with a 924 score first time, tried other books but Todds was the most readable as if he was actually talking to you, and the best explanation ever on subnetting, even though I read it over a few times, but I felt comfortable during the exam. I liked Todds sense of humour. The test questions at the end of each chapter, plus the test exam were realistic to the real exam, 2 CCNP books already on order by Todd of course!
Passed the Support exam, the hardest exam in the CCNP series

This has got to be the hardest exam in the CCNP series. I was sweating bullets. I am thankful for this book, as it did prepare me, but you really have to study hard to pass this exam. If it wasn't for this book, I would have failed for sure, but I did get a 890, which is awesome for this exam. This exam hits hard on ISDN troublshooting. Read the ISDN chapter in this book at least twice before taking the exam. You'll pass, but you have to do some work too! Good luck
I just keep moving towards my CCNP with Sybex!

This is a great written book and it really helped my understand the ISDN troublshooting technique that is so difficult on this exam. To pass the Cisco CCNP Support exam, you MUST know your troubleshooting techiques for ISDN and Frame Relay realy, really well. Everything on the exam was in this book. I recommend this book for the exam and for a desk reference as well. It is the largest Cisco book I have bought from Sybex, so be prepared to read and read some more. Also, having routers and switches is the key to sucess on this exam.
What are you waiting for?

I'm not going to lie. The Support 2.0 exam is very hard! If you have hopes in passing the exam the first time, I recommend you to study this book cover to cover. On top of that, this is the only resource I used to prepare. If you do not have access to a router, you can follow the excellent examples in the book by writing down the commands and their results a few times to jog your memory. Bottom line, this may be the easiest way to prepare for such a hard exam.
