Very good for teching! Rating:
5 / 5
This is a very well done book that has made it much easier for teaching the concepts to new and aspiring administrators.
Extremely well written and illustrated-not overly technical! Rating:
5 / 5
This is not a training manual (with chapter quizes, etc.). It is, however, the BEST source I've seen for grasping an understanding of TCP/IP (as in MCSE candidate). It is extremely well written, and the grahic illustrations are a tremendous help to someone like me (I'm a visual learner who easily forgets things that don't have a graphic or other stimulus). Let's face it, when you start talking about a bunch of 1's and 0's running around inside of computer or across a network wire, that's a little hard to relate to without something tangible. I'm studying for MCSE, and I use this as a reference source to clarify voids in my training manuals. This resource has crystalized many things which were just "vapor" until Bisaillon/Werner. Again, the graphics, supplemented by understandable text, is the answer. I'd highly recommend this to any person seeking better understanding of the subject without being overly technical. Finally, I might add, so many of these computer related books/manuals are loaded with typo's, spelling and punctuation errors, poor grammar, and outright mistakes; but NOT this one. I haven't read the book cover-to-cover, but I also haven't noticed any mistakes. That's refreshing! My hat is off to the authors for a such a superb job!
A pleasant, quick way to get your network running. Rating:
4 / 5
I managed to add TCP/IP, DHCP, and RAS to a buggy NetBeui Network in just a few days by following the examples in the book. Fell a bit short for me on the theory and advanced topics and I couldn't contact the authors, but it served it's purpose well. Glad I found it.
