Just got my copy. Reading the "About the Authors" section alone is impressive. All those associated with the book are CCIE's. I look forward to discovering if there are any errors in the book. One would hope not, given the credentials of the writers and reviewers, one of whom was the Halifax Lab Proctor for several years.
So far I have browsed all of the first chapter "The Key Components for Modeling an Internetwork" This chapter covers in good detail all those basic questions - the config register, configuring a router as a frame switch, password recovery, show and debug ( called "the big show" and "the big d" respectively, throughout the book. ) building a terminal server, and much much more. This alone tells me that this book might be a good investment for those just starting out, as well as those prepping for the CCIE Lab. Sure, all of this information is available elsewhere, but with this book, it is in one place, easily located, and clearly explained. There is even a section about configuring networking on windoze computers. Considering the number of raw beginners who are coming into the certification process, this is helpful. I'll have more comments after I have had a chance to look at the "good" stuff.
