If you're really worried about troubleshooting or don't have much experience wi
th it, I would suggest taking the Cisco Internetwork Troubleshooting (CIT) clas
s at Mentor Technologies. They have enhanced the standard Cisco labs that were
written for the course. You'll get hammered for a week on troubleshooting skill
s--concentrate on fixing things a layer at a time, and you'll see some really c
hallenging things that you'll have to find and fix. I found it to be a very enj
oyable week when I took the class last year.

What about Cisco's troubleshooting book? Pretty good information in it.
Not as good as 10 yrs. experience but a good place to get started. Save
me a lot of time in frame-relay and ISDN.
