Editorial description(s):

Amazon.com
If you can think of the problem, Internetworking Troubleshooting Handbook probably has the solution--at least when it comes to networking problems. This 714-page tome is absolutely phenomenal in scope. Though you may not find in-depth scholarly discussions of networking woes, you will find pragmatic tips that can help you through an immediate crisis. And the configuration screens, tables, and diagrams are both essential and useful additions to the text.

Divided into six sections, the first outlines general problem-solving techniques as well as available troubleshooting tools from Cisco and third-party vendors. Next, the authors contend with hardware, booting, and media (which essentially means answers as to what could be preventing the network routers or switches from automatically firing up). In addition, potential Ethernet, FDDI (Fiber Distributed Data Interface), and Token Ring malfunctions are more than sufficiently addressed.

The seven chapters of section 3 deal exclusively with routing protocols from TCP/IP to AppleTalk to the more obscure Banyan VINES. As for WAN connectivity, more than 100 pages are dedicated to serial line, dial-in, ISDN, frame relay, and X.25 connections. And if you're experiencing difficulty in your ATM or LAN switching environment, with your security servers, or with CiscoWorks, this team of authors has provided useful guidance for those issues as well. The five appendices--"Creating Core Dumps," "Memory Maps," "Technical Support Information," "References and Recommended Reading," and "Troubleshooting Worksheets"--are also invaluable. --Sarah L.

Reader review(s):

Good preparation for the CIT 4.0 exam, January 12, 1999
Was able to locate the answers for all 31 questions presented on Cisco's web site for the CIT 4.0 exam. Exam4.0 is required when preparing for the CCNP. Written clear, concise and to the point. (no fluff included)

Wont teach troubleshooting skills but good for diagnosis..., September 9, 1999
While this may not TEACH you how to troubleshoot a network (get Cisco Internetwork Troubleshooting for that), this book is good since it provides details relating to error messages etc and also in-depth explanation of numerous messages that you are likely to encounter in yr Cisco powered Network. Use it as a handy reference

Great complement to CIT, June 7, 2001
I am currently studying for my last CCNP exam : support.

I find this book a great complement of CIT.

There is an error in book description : it is 1025 pages (not 714, which should be the size of the paperback edition), so it is much more complete than the online version on CCO.

I reccomend it in addition to CIT for passing support.

Note : I passed the 3 previous ccnp exams first try by using cisco ccnp course books.

Excellent starting point for Cisco troubleshooting., February 15, 1999
The step-by-step presentation approach to this book is a very effective way to help the technician isolate Cisco related network problems. It also provides valuable information about specific protocols and topologies.

Great for Troubleshooting, August 1, 2002
Although it does not address routing protocals,it covers everything else.
