Cisco's routers may be the heart of the Internet and of corporate WANs, but it's a wellknown fact that the documentation that comes with them is often too abstruse to be useful. That's why network administrators, especially IP novices, will appreciate Cisco TCP/IP: Routing Professional Reference. Author Chris Lewis, a contributing editor for Network Computing magazine, successfully walks the fine line between providing basic nuts-and-bolts information for beginners and offering the high-level solutions that experienced professionals need. The book takes a hands-on, solutions-oriented approach, beginning with router basics, then plunging head-on into the details of Cisco routers, covering everything from initial setup to advanced debugging and troubleshooting.
