CCIE Routing and Switching v5.1 Foundations: Bridging the Gap Between CCNP and CCIE

Rate this book
CCIE-level Cisco routing and switching guide for every CCNP



Preparing for the CCIE Routing and Switching lab exam typically involves deep and lengthy study. But if you already possess the Cisco CCNP Routing and Switching certification, you already know much of what you’ll need to succeed on CCIE’s labs. This book will help you quickly bridge your remaining knowledge gaps and make the most of everything you already know.



CCIE Routing and Switching v5.1 Foundations addresses every segment of the CCIE R&S Version 5 blueprint, helping you focus your study where it will do the most intense hands-on practice to deepen your current knowledge and thorough explanations of theoretical topics you haven’t yet encountered.



Based on the author’s industry-recognized CCIE prep classes, it includes 40+ detailed labs for real gear and platform emulators; structured illustrations of protocol and feature operation; and topic-specific labs to drive the theory home. It includes a full lab walkthrough of a complex configuration reflective of the actual CCIE–ensuring that you thoroughly understand the technologies and interactions you’re reading about.

Very practical book. Covers a lot of material fairly quickly. There is more required than this book to bridge CCNP and CCIE, but it's a good resource. Covers a lot of scenarios.
