• Excellent Book ..keep Up The Good Work
15 October, 2000
In the beginning i doubt about this book ...then i need a reference due to short period of preparation so it leaves me no choice but to get this book.. I solely used this book for about 1 & 1/2 months plus the trancender and pass the MCSE test on my first try "with flying colours"....it makes understanding the TCP/IP easier and applicable. DONT JUDGE THE BOOK BY IT"S COVERmy next move is to get the Exchange Server 5.5 ...of course by DUMMIES...DUMMIES is my first choice...why did'nt i thought of that before..

• Not A Complete Reference, But A Good Book For Newbies
10 October, 2000
There are quite a few errors in this book and the content really only touches the surface of TCP/IP. However, it does contain enough info to pass the exam and it does make learning IP relatively easy. This is a good book for people that are new to TCP/IP. If you know a little about subnetting etc. then I would look to something a little more in depth. SAMS TCP/IP in 24 hours is good, but the definitive technical reference is TCP/IP Illustrated by W. Richard Stevens. That said I give this book 3 stars as a entry reference to TCP/IP.

• Great Book To Understand All You Need About Tcp/ip
10 February, 2001
I bought this book and read it in order to prep for the MCSE TCP/IP NT 4.0 and by using this book and Trancenders practice test I passed the exam with a very good score. Not only did the book help me to pass the exam it made me understand the concepts as well. The only reason I did not give the book a 5 star rating was because I used the softwars it came with for practice test and I never found it that helpful. If you want to pass the exam and understand the concepts read this book and use trancender practice test software.

• Not Bad
19 September, 2000
Not bad overall. I passed the test 1 and 1/2 months after picking up the book (passed on the first try). I only used this book. All I knew about TCPIP before I got started was that I needed it to connect to the Internet.However, you've got to be aggressive in your studying and critical of what you read. Read the whole book once. Then read the entire book again with a highlighter. Then go through the whole book a third time taking typewritten notes (my preferred form of notes - easier to save and read) on what you highlighted. Then take all practice tests (beginning of chapter, end of chapter, and CD). Re-read your notes every day. Review all missed practice test questions immediately after taking each exam.But beware - there are several mistakes in the book, and I got really hung up on them thinking it was me. The subnetting chapter was very confusing, and I never really did get a good understanding of it. I didn't get some of the IP addressing stuff for a while, but when I did, I said to myself, "well why didn't he just SAY that." I'm convinced the author had nothing to do with the production of the accompanying CD; he clearly stated that certain topics would not be tested on the exam, but I got as many as 5-10 questions on the practice exams on these same topics. Then there were questions on things that weren't even mentioned in the book at all. That was frustrating because again, I spent time in the beginning thinking the problem was with me.Anyway, like I said, I did pass the first time with no background understanding of TCPIP. So, it was worth the time and money. If you're aggressive about it, you can do it too.
