They're not really that comparable.
Caslow is great at talking you through how to configure a 3920, frame-relay
etc.
Solie is good for OSPF and DLSW and ISDN.
Neither will help you with BGP - Halibi is still vital.
The thing that annoys me about the Solie book is the amount of paper wasted
on re-
covering pointless topics such as access servers, password recovery and
cables, covering
some of the IOS based switches also seems unnecessary. The book could have
been a bit
lighter or had space for more detail on VoIP or some of the other topics
that are not
detailed enough for the lab.
The labs in the Solie book look pretty good, but it does bug me that in the
real lab
they manage to make very complex scenarios with very few routers, whereas
allot of the
practice labs are too simple despite needing 9 or 10 routers.
