CiscoPress is the ultimate authority for any cisco product, it'll bore you to death reading it, but that's the breaks You'll find you'll need real equipment for the CCNP according to what I've been reading. It'll help some, but not enough (just yet)

Hello Blade ,

For CCNA along with a good simulator maybe but for CCNP absolutley not.

I passed Compo 642-891 recently and used Cisco Press mainly & the Cisco site + hands on at home and in work.

I also read the relevant parts of the Sybex CCNP Complete Study Guide: Exams 642-801, 642-811, 642-821, 642-831 to get a different slant on things.

In truth I barely passed the exam and would not have passed if I used only the Sybex offerings.

You got to use as much legit material as you can for this exam. Its extremely detailed and the sims really need attention, so "hands-on" whether at home, work or online is vital.

Goodluck
