Are you looking to pass the coveted Cisco CCNA Routing and Switching exam? There are so many study guides to choose from, but most of them only serve to confuse students with unnecessary technical jargon and useless information rather than teach them what they need to know to pass the exam and actually apply what they have learned to the real world of IT. This book will prepare you for the latest Cisco CCNA Routing exams, including: - 200-125 CCNA - Interconnecting Cisco Networking Devices: Accelerated (CCNAX) - 100-105 ICND1 - Interconnecting Cisco Networking Devices: Part 1 (ICND1) - 200-105 ICND2 - Interconnecting Cisco Networking Devices: Part 2 (ICND2) Over 50% of the CCNA exam marks are awarded for completing the notoriously difficult practical lab scenarios, so why are there next to no labs to be found in most CCNA study guides?
