Descriptions 1: CCIE Practical Studies, Volume I: v. 1 (CCIE Professional Development) Download
Preparing for the practical portion of your Cisco Certified Internetwork Engineer (CCIE) examination, in which you have to configure and troubleshoot networks on Cisco equipment in a testing lab, can be scary. There's simply so much the test proctor can throw at you, and you have to be prepared for it all. CCIE Practical Studies Volume 1 does a fantastic job of preparing you for much of what you can expect to see on the first day of your CCIE lab exam (when you build a system to specifications). Karl Solie, a CCIE himself, approaches each subject on the CCIE syllabus first with a quick academic overview ("here's what frame relay", for instance, "is for, and here's how Cisco equipment thinks of it"). That gives way to a series of examples ("here's a typical set of customer requirements, and here are the IOS commands and configuration files that satisfy them"). Finally, a series of subject-specific lab exercises (which are shorter than a typical day-long CCIE assignment) drill you on the Cisco skills related to the technology at hand. Solie explains how he'd solve the lab--in wonderful detail--immediately after the pages that describe these small lab tasks.
At the end of the book, you'll find five full-scale CCIE labs, very similar to the ones you'll have to complete in eight-and-a-half hours on test day. There are instructions on how to pre-stage your equipment (as the exam proctor would normally do), and what you need to accomplish. You can time yourself on these labs and get a very good idea of your preparedness. Solie could make the next edition of this book better by devoting even more discussion to the troubleshooting techniques appropriate to different kinds of systems. Problems inevitably crop up in CCIE configurations, and there's rarely time to start over in the lab. Regardless, provided you have the equipment and discipline required to work through his exercises independently, this book is a better deal than almost any commercial training course. --David Wall, Good Books To Read 2016 .
