Title: CISCO IOS in a nutshell
Product review: The Cisco IOS Command Line Interface (CLI) has burgeoned over the years, andthe consequent wealth of commands can intimidate the most seasoned system admin.More than half of this book's 592 pages are devoted to a CLI reference section--and if you are seriously involved with router management, you'll find that yourcopy will be well worn.The other half of the book is a practical coverage of theory -- access lists,interior and external routing protocols, security, troubleshooting -- eachwith real-world examples to back them up.Think you're already a Cisco Guru? You might need to think again -- do you knowhow to optimize your access lists? (page 98) Do you know the difference betweenIGRP and EIGRP? (check out Chapter 9 -- interior routing protocols.) And finally,do you know how to setup multiple-group hot standby routing? (flip to page 213)This book is a great guidebook for the novice and a solid reference for theexperienced.
