"full of" is a relative term. From "sources" ieMentor has errors as well.
We have an updated book on the way (as I believe ieMentor does as well from
what I've heard). Everyone works to correct errors that they have.

Some of the "errors" in the book are due to changes in physical topology,
which while unfortunate (and no excuses) should not be THAT big a deal once
documented to figure out.

Before accusing folks of not bothering to fix things you may consider asking
someone. :) It's about as good as someone pointing out that you obviously
are going to fail a lab exam because of one topic that you may not
understand very well. Or basing that assumption on an e-mail seen, or
worse, something heard from someone else.

Enough of my rant.

Have heard from other sources that IPexpert SP book sux. Dont know whats
their hurry to release a book in the market which is full of errors for huge
amounts. Then they don't even bother to fix things. It is a shame.

  Hi,

  Im studing for the CCIE SP Lab exam. I bought the IPExpert WB3 for
  Service

  provider.

  I noticed that the book has a lot of typos/ erros and the
  configuration

  files (initall) and even worse the somtiimes Final configutations are

  missing. IPExpert promised me that they will fix, but it will take
  some

  weeks. I also noticed that the book does not cover "MPLS TE
  fastreroute and

  Loose ERO "next address LOOSE x.x.x.x". These are valid test topics
  at the

  current CCIE SP lab exam.

  Does anyone has some practice material which I can use? Does anyone
  know a

  Service provider rental service which does support TE fast reroute
  and Loose

  ero's (proctorlabs does currently not, or I'm missing something).

  Thanks and regards,

  J.
