thanks for guidance...
i do print out the blue prints.. but again.. it just give us the general
topics only..
i'm thinking of breaking it down to more topics..
for example instead of OSPF... i will break it down into 2 major portion...
1) OSPF in a multiaccess broadcast network (Ethernet)
2) OSPF in a non broadcast nework (Frame Relay)..
 If possiblem i wish to look for anyone who's kind enought to share me their
study plan...
as i really dunno how to construct one by myself, i am so confused with so
many different topics..
