Title: CCNP Switching Study Guide (Exam 640-504 with CD-ROM) by Todd Lammle, Kevin Hales, Inc Cisco Systems, Todd Lammine ISBN: 0-7821-2711-8 Publisher: Sybex Inc Pub. Date: 13 October, 2000 Format: Hardcover Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $49.99 |
Average Customer Rating: 3.91 (33 reviews)
Rating: 4
Summary: Excellent book.
Comment: This is an excellent book that covers all you need to know to pass the CCNP Switching exam.
Although it contained typos (consistent with most Lammle books) the material was presented in an easy to learn and mostly fun way.
I found that the book focused a lot on multi-cast and I had only 3 multi-cast questions on the exam (though you may have more).
I studied the commands but didn't have the hardware to practice on and still did very well on the exam, taking only 30 minutes of the allowed 75.
If you are looking for a good book for this exam this could be the one. The Cisco Press book is also supposed to be good but I haven't got it yet.
This would have been 5-stars but the typos and the fact that the book concentrated on some stuff that wasn't on the exam prevented me from giving it a perfect rating.
Rating: 4
Summary: Quite Good
Comment: I found this book quite good, detailed & well written. The multicasting section (PIM et al) may have been overelaborate (i got no questions on this area), but generally it covers all necessary topics in enough depth to pass the Switching exam and as a reference.
I'm sticking with the Lammle theme as i've done for the CCNA and CCNP Routing papers.
Good Luck all!!!

Summary: Wondering which to buy for your 640-604, Cisco or Sybex?
Comment: I passed 640-604 Exam only studying with this book with the score of almost 900.
I also bought the Cisco Press's book for the same subject, but could not even go through it to the end once, because, it just made me very sleepy after few minutes every time I tried although I believe this is a great study book.
On the other hand, this Sybex book was very fun to read, covering the exam well. Even for those who do not have Engish as a native language like myself, can easily read this book, take the exam in English and can pass it.
The only bad point is, like the other reviewer pointed out, this book does not cover HSRP, which was still questioned as of May 2003. I would recommend that you buy the Cisco's book too and take a look at only that section to get a quick knowledge of HSRP, then you are good to go!
