John,
If you've got the Caslow book, it breaks the topics into 3 levels. Your
list looks about right, but I'd add RIP. With IGRP gone, they're going to
focus more on RIP and it's 'quirks' when combined with VLSM protocols. I'd
take IPX off the core list. It's not even distribution or access layer at
this point :) If you've played around with a 3550 or 2950 yet, you'd know
there's a boat-load of QOS that they can do. Might add QOS to the list to.
With LANE gone, ATM is pretty much just a WAN protocol, pretty simple to
learn. Again, the Caslow/Pavlichenko book covers it well enough.
