 disappointed January 9, 2007

Too much fluff and too many factoids. I was hoping for more hard information detailed enough to setup networks.
 A Very Handy Reference November 10, 2006
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Although this book was purchased as a text book required for a graduate level course, its vast amount of network history and detailed diagrams of different types of networks, as well as the many lists of statistics on networking media, make this book an invaluable quick reference for up and coming network admins and engineers.
Good, moderately Microsoft-focused, no Cisco August 14, 2006

There's a lot in this book that is good. However, it's focused towards the future Microsoft server administrator, not the future router or switch maintainer. I'd suggest a CCNA-training book for that.
Not for self-study! September 12, 2004

Please be aware that this book (and others by the same publisher)are meant for colleges and/or trade schools and thus the answers to exercises, labs, projects, etc are available ONLY to instructors. Furthermore, neither the publisher nor the authors maintain a website for errata so you are on your own if you misunderstand a concept due to typos and false information.
 Awesome book for Network+ exam December 29, 2001
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
While this book wasn't written specifically for CompTIA's Network+ exam, I found it extremely useful and informative. I have read many networking books, and this one explained the concepts very well, especially at what layers various hardware devices work. I bought it for a college networking class and kept it after the class was over because I thought it was so useful. I passed my Network+ exam a couple of weeks ago with the help of this book.
