Giles, 2nd Edition Errata [7:11858]
Do any of you know where to find an errata for the 2nd edition of the All-in-One CCIE Study Guide? I've found the first edition errata in several locations but no luck so far with the second book. I've found many errors already, especially in the end-of-chapter practice quizzes. Considering that this is the last book I'll read before the test on Saturday, I'd like to get the correct information. :-) I'd hate to get confused this late in the game!

John, Take my advice . STAY OFF GILES ... this is the most confusing book I have read in my entire career as a Network Engineer . Its full of useless ,crappy information and trivia that will just end up confusing you ...

So far I've found it to be interesting, but while reading I got the impression that it had WAY too much detail in some areas and not nearly enough detail in others. You're right, it might be tempting to try to remember all the details that he packs in there when a large number of them most likely wouldn't be on the test. It also has a large number of errors, and even though many of them are fairly minor, they can be confusing because they often present contradictory information. The answer keys to the test questions are especially spooky! I've found a few examples where your choices might be A,B,C, or D and the answer in the key is G! heh heh you can't win like that. Thanks for the tips! John >>> "Jaspreet Bhatia" 7/12/01 10:05:34 AM >>> John, Take my advice .

John, Maybe I wrote in a little too strong words about the Giles Book .But is just that I made the mistake of spending $ 85 on this book .But that was not my worst mistake .It was going through it . I ended up totally confused about what I needed to know for the written . But I work at Cisco and know a few CCIE's and all of them recommended that I stay off Giles . And I thought it made sense to warn my fellow CCIE 2 B 's about the Giles book . Anyway Caslow ,Halabi and Doyle make excellent reading and make you think about stuff instead of tempting you to cram it .. All the best in your quest ...
