I read it and thought it was very good.  There are only about 350 pages of
real material that you need to read.  The other 550 pages is mostly fluff.
If you read and understand most of what is in the book the test is pretty
easy.  But, I would suggest at least having a router that is capable of
doing some IDS functions and you should definitely load CSPM on to a NT 4.0
box.  You can probably still pass without doing that, but you will find it a
LOT easier if you have the CSPM application available while reading the
book.  It would be bonus if you had an IDS sensor as well.  But, getting one
is not cheap unless you know how to build one.

Hi John ,
IDS sensor is available in NFR (Not for resell) to partners and
resellers of Cisco  for USD 2000 less the standard discounts.
This book is excellent for anyone who is preparing for CSIDS.

Yes Navin I know what an NFR is.  :)  But, most people do not work for
resellers.  That's why I didn't mention it.  But, I wouldn't pay even 2k for
something I can build for a lot less.  The only reason to pay for one is so
you can get the CD's with 2.5 and 3.0 on them.  Unfortunately they cannot be
downloaded.
