Chuck,
Another title I've been using in tandem with the
Slattery/Burton Book is Large Scale IP Network Solutions by Khalid Raza and
Mark Turner. This book does give a good overview of key points identified
in large-scale network and the lab. In glancing at another title(CCIE
Design & Case Studies)
I plan on using to prepare for the lab, the Raza/Turner provides a good
stepping stone.
Anyone care to comment on this
Nigel...
