Just started reading the book. (100 pages read for the first time)
This comment is only on a first look at the book. If you are reading the
book you will find the mistakes
pretty easily.
If you read below I stated a few places where a few errors where.
Add on to this:
Chapt 4 page 96 figure 4.1 Totally irrelevant. There is also another figure
4-1 on Page 100
Usually there should only be one figure 4-1
Back to reading! Feedback from anyone who is or has read the book is
welcome.
Did anyone actually only read this book to pass the BSCN?????????
I know it states on the cover "Book Companion"
which probably means "buy another book instead" or "companion is what you
really should have instead of this book"
Just a little frustrated, sorry to the list..............
Daniel

Do you know if there an errata for that book? I looked at the ciscopress
webpage didn't see one for that book. Or maybe point out some of the
mistakes?
Thanks!
