Check out IE's structured approach class session, it's at the end of this
page:
http://www.internetworkexpert.com/onlineclassroom.htm
After that you will need a book list:
Here is my reading list recommendations:
Concepts:
Internetworking with TCP/IP Vol.1(4th Edition)
TCP/IP Illustrated, Volume 1
Routing and Switching: Time of Convergence?
Network Design and Case Studies (CCIE Fundamentals) (2nd Edition)
Routing In the Internet (2nd Edition) (Huitema)
Interconnections: Bridges & Routers, Second Edition (Perlman)
ISDN: Concepts, Facilities, and Services (Kessler)
Layer Two:
Cisco LAN Switching (Clark, Hamilton, ISBN# 1578700949)
Cisco Catalyst QoS: Quality of Service in Campus Networks (Flannagan)
Bradshaw Labs - ATM Learning Lab
(Sorry for the plug, but anyone who has read it should agree)
or Cisco ATM Solutions by Pakdush
IPv6
Implementing Cisco IPv6 Networks (IPv6) (Regis Desmeules)
Configuring IPv6 for Cisco IOS (Edgar Parenti)
IPv6: Theory, Protocol, and Practice, 2nd Edition (Pete Loshin)
IGP Routing:
Routing TCP/IP, Volume I (CCIE Professional Development) (Doyle)
Routing TCP/IP, Volume II (CCIE Professional Development) (Doyle)
Cisco OSPF Command and Configuration Handbook (Parkhurst)
EGP Routing:
Internet Routing Architectures, 2nd edition (Sam Halabi)
Cisco BGP-4 Command and Configuration Handbook (Parkhurst)
IP and IOS Services:
Developing IP Multicast Networks
Configuring Cisco Routers for Bridging, DLSw+ & Desktop Protocols - Tan
Nam-Kee (A bit outdated but excellent resource for DLSw+)
Administering Cisco QoS in IP Networks - Michael Flannigan
(ACL's, NAT, Route-Maps, Traffic Classification, and Queuing)
Enhanced IP Services for Cisco Networks - Donald Lee
(Qos an Security)
Now do practice labs to supplement your knowledge:
Use only the Cisco IOS Documentation as your only reference when doing the
labs, if you need to use a book, you better reread it since you just found
your weak area.
Doe anyone disagree with any of these books or know a better one to learn a
technology? One thing that everyone is probably lacking is a definitive book
list.
