Hi guys. I'm looking for something thats "to the point" sort to speak. I graduated from college a few years ago and had I taken ccna right after I could have probably aced it. There were two courses directly related to (back then) CCENT 1 and 2. However its been a few years now and I sure I've lost some of that knowledge. I work in IT but not specifically networking though it is part of my job description.
I started reading Wendell Odom's book but its too tedious for me. 80% of what I'm reading I already know. I'm glossing over sections and there is a good chance I might be missing that other 20%.
It also reads as if you have very little knowledge going in. I made it to chapter 14 and finally decided to call it quits on this book when I read:
"The rest of this chapter focuses on how to take one IP address and mask and discover the details about that one subnet in which the address resides."
That's 20 pages to describe a 15 second process.
Anyway I think I'm starting to rant at this point. I just need something that's a little more to the point, more focused on review, and doesn't read as if you have no knowledge of networking going in.
Thanks in advance!
