Book Description
For courses in Cisco Technology, Cisco Guides and Certification, Routing and Switching, and Network Management. Cisco Router Configuration & Troubleshooting, Second Edition serves as a reference for students studying network and system administration. If your course tackles how to configure and maintain existing Cisco routers as well as get new hardware up and running, add this book to your reading list. The author begins by touching on the foundation behind routing technology: networks, protocols, and hardware. Then he jumps right into router configuration, discussing setup, local and wide area networking, security, and monitoring. By providing advice and preferred practices, instead of just rehashing Cisco documentation, Tripod gives students information they can start using today. The troubleshooting section uses a fictitious company to illustrate the different scenarios an administrator might encounter. It includes situations that deal with Cisco routers, as well as hardware from other companies, mimicking the heterogeneous environment most administrators face.
