Hi,
I plan on buying both books - Internet Routing Architectures and the BCSN
book from CiscoPress.
The book (Internet Routing Architectures) obviously covers all routing
protocols I suppose. Does it also cover OSPF and other elements required for
the BSCN exam as well?
Do you think that these two books are sufficient for the BSCN exam... do you
recommend anything else? (I will also be looking for lots of other resources
on the Internet- RFCs and all)
Thanks,
J-M

Internet Routing Architectures. It mostly focuses on BGP. Probably the
best book in print on BGP routing.
