Great book but out of date.
This book is for those who wish to design networks at the router level. If you aren't designing networks, you may find this book not quite as useful. The Cisco Internetwork Operating System is out of date but most of the commands in the book still work but newers IOS will have a terminal wizard now that will setup up most things in the book much easier.

By the way, I am a network administrator.

Good intro to what it the cover states
I enjoyed the content of this book. I must stress that it is an intro to networking with Tcp/IP. It is rather vague in details on quite a few subjects in the CISCO arena. I was a little dissapointed with it's delivery of IP subnetting. I was looking for more of a detailed description relating down to the binary or hexadecimal values. Overall, I think it is a good book to start off with and to gather the terminologies from. It does give brief descriptions of many of these but doesn't exert details with many. If you are the person looking for an intro into CISCO routers dealing with an IP point of view, this book is for you.

ok for beginners, not great
although this is a pretty good book for beginners, it is not the best. But, then again , I am yet to find a execellent book for beginners on cisco routers.
