Just wanted to get a quick recommendation on some studying advice.
I consider myself a very good book learner, better than average at being
able to read something and remember it (more importantly remember how/when
to use it, etc).
I feel very comfortable with all routing protocols and the like as well as
pretty much all layer 1 and 2 stuff.
What I'm looking for is more of what books would be good for some specific
study into Voice, Multicast, Qos and general IP services as they relate to
the lab, the need to go deeper eventually will carve itself out as time
permits.
I realize these are not exactly what I'd call major areas to be concerned
about on the lab, but I get no exposure to most of this stuff on the
networks I work on at work (and otherwise of course feel extremely
comfortable with the stuff I do see on a nightly basis).
In searching through ciscopress.com, the closest book I found that would
cover some of this is Voice-Enabled the Data Network, published late
2002. This is the other thing I'm having a problem week. I see there is a
multicast book from 99, another voice book from 00. One thing I really
dislike is buying older material.
What I'm looking for is recommendations on what titles to get that have a
publish date of atleast 2002, and flow much like Sams BGP book or Doyles
Routing one does. Also, I'm looking for paper stuff, not necessarily
online resources (yes I know theres the printer, but I disgress) - as I
read/study in strange places sometimes...so whats everyone favorite?
Thanks in advance
