RE: BGP - Internet Routing Architectures, Second Edition
I would have to agree. I recently started reading it and I am on about Chapter 6 and it is fantastic! The first few chapters cover basic things like the Internet, CDIR, VLSM and other basics but then it delves highly into massive BGP.

RE: BGP - Internet Routing Architectures, Second Edition
Good day, A second edition implies that the book is more up-to-date. It probably doesn't include many new topics, though. Halabi's second edition of "Internet Routing Architectures" is out and it's similar to his first edition, (in other words, very good). He got help from Danny McPherson on the second edition, and I think that made the book even more readable. It is THE book for learning BGP, a very important topic for BSCN. Jeff Doyle, on the other hand, is working on Volume II of his "Routing TCP/IP." That's different than a second edition. A second volume means new material, new topics. In particular, his Volume II is going to include BGP. Volume I did not include BGP. On the other hand, Volume I of "Routing TCP/IP" is THE book for learning every other major IP routing protocol, especially OSPF. So, for now, I would recommend Volume I of Jeff Doyle's "Routing TCP/IP" and the 2nd edition of Halabi's "Internet Routing Architectures." Volume II of "Routing TCP/IP" isn't due out until March. By then you will have memorized Halabi's book and become a CCIE! ;-) Priscilla At 11:15 AM 10/17/00, Jean-Michel Roberts wrote: >Good day, > >What is the difference between the Internet Routing Architectures book by >Basam Halabi 1st edition and 2nd edition?

RE: BGP - Internet Routing Architectures, Second Edition
Good day, What is the difference between the Internet Routing Architectures book by Basam Halabi 1st edition and 2nd edition? Is it just a more up to date version? Which would you recommend to prepare for the BSCN exam and other exams in the CCNP/CCIE track? The book: Routing TCP/IP by Doyle also has two editions. Dou you have any comments, i.e. which shall I get... the second edition only comes out early next year? Is it also a more up to date version or is the 1st version sufficient? (I also don't want to wait until next year) Thanks in advance.
