5Two thumbs up - newest CCDA study guideAug 09, 2011
By AC-HOU
I used the newest revision of the CCDA study guide to pass the 640-864 exam in mid July. I found the updates to the Cisco design models to reflect the current state of networks and more importantly I thought the book was a great introduction/update for anyone in a network design capacity. I found the book easy to read and full of useful content! Strong recommendation here.

5Good Resource for Test PrepNov 04, 2011
By B. Story
A couple of months ago I had the privilege to read an advance e-book version of this new certification guide for the Cisco Certified Design Associate written by Anthony Bruno and Steve Jordan. Cisco Press is bundling this e-book with a new test engine. Unlike previous certification guides, this new test engine is not from Boson. The test engine was very user friendly and the test material was well designed.

The book itself is very well laid out. Although it is thick with theory about network design to meet the needs of those studying for the CCDA exam, it also has many real world examples. These examples make the theory easier to understand and internalize.

As with most of the Cisco Press certification guides, there are plenty of questions within the chapters to help the reader self assess their progress. My favorite feature is the memory table appendix. These are a great way to prepare for the test. My goal when I prepare for a test is to use the memory tables until I can accurately fill them in without the book and even produce them without the empty tables. It's a great feeling to start an exam with a "cheat sheet" of sorts from the memory tables you can write down on your white board.

4Compare vs 3rd EditionOct 27, 2011
By Art NashvilleTN
I'm able to review the 4th edition versus the 3rd edition. The new edition contains the additional topics: Data Center, Video (included with VoIP), Final Prep at the back of the book, and "Memory Tables". "Memory Tables" are interesting in that they would be the 50 or so pages I would print out and use as my "Book Notes". My study method includes the writing out the notes from the book, and my notes would go on those pages. The new edition has dropped IS-IS (just in case you were looking for that topic).

4good preparation for the examJul 03, 2011
By W Boudville
The dominant computer networking company is Cisco. So if you aspire to be a network manager, being certified in Cisco products can be an important qualification. To help you pass the CCDA DESGN exam, the authors of this book compiled a massive study aid.

Each chapter is prefaced by a 'Do I know this already' quiz. A few pages of multiple choice questions. None seems particularly hard or conceptually deep. This is a nice format for what is meant to be a purely functional, single purpose book. Perhaps like the venerable Schaum's Outline series, fleshed out with more narrative. I wonder why I don't see this more often. Often texts for exam preparation have quizzes at the end of chapters; not at the start.

As usual with most Cisco books, the network diagrams are well drawn and usually simple. An invaluable aid to understanding the accompanying narrative. Often, the diagrams reduce the discussion of a network topology or routing to the minimal essence in graphical form. This pictorial representation might be what really makes a lot of text coherent to the reader.

The book can serve another purpose. The grouping of information into the various chapters is a handy way to study networking. Several of the chapters, like those on Internet Protocol version 4 and version 6, can be regarded as quite generic; ie. not about Cisco products and their specific properties. Likewise with the chapter on managing security. This talks about 3rd party tools (think Nmap, Nessus and Kismet as examples) and the overall design of a network.

Don't forget the accompanying CD. While the book has those quizzes, the CD is meant as a full test run, after you have hopefully assimilated the chapters. If you are indeed preparing for the exam and have gotten this book, sittin thru the CD is vital feedback on your preparation status. If you find that you've scored too low on the CD exam, then consider postponing taking the real exam while you reread [more carefully this time!] the book. This can easily repay the cost of the book, compared to having to retake the exam.

5Great Study Guide and ReferenceDec 04, 2011
By V. MERCHENT "RV Camper"
This book is a great study guide and it serves a very useful long term purpose as a great reference tool. I am also using it as one of my study materials preparing for the Cisco CCNA exam.

I really like the way Cisco presents the material. This guide has just enough detail to clearly cover the topic but not overwhelm. The use of tables, figures, examples, and bulleted points, make it an easy read. Key topics for the exam are clearly marked. Each chapter begins with a quiz which is helpful in deciding how much time to spend studying that chapter. Each chapter also ends with a Q&A section which serves to ensure that you understand the material. The last 2 chapters of the guide tie it all together by providing real world comprehensive scenarios and tools for final exam preparation.

The CD contains supplemental materials including:
* Memory Tables and the Memory tables answer key in PDF format. This is similar to a cheat sheet and provides another good tool for certification preparation.
* The installer for the exam engine for the practice test and the process to activate it
* Link to register this guide so that you can receive any update

The exam engine installed and ran well on Windows 7. It provides 2 modes, study and practice exam. You can choose to include the book questions as well as the practice exam questions. You can include or exclude questions for each exam objective. You can choose to order by objective or not. You can choose the number of questions to select and a time limit. You can move forward and backward through the questions. You can also review the answer and an explanation at any point in time. This exam engine also allows you to save notes for any specific question which is a feature I have not seen before. When you click the Grade Exam button, you are provided with detailed feedback on your results. This includes feedback on each objective as well as each question.

I highly recommend this book as either a study guide and/or a great reference tool for networking concepts.
