I am always inspired by the Cisco Press books which are my only source for my career success. When it comes to certification study guides, Cisco Press leads from the front. In this article I will try to review the CCNP BSCI Official Exam Certification Guide, Fourth Edition, this study guide is a first and final step towards your CCNP success.
As promised by Cisco Press the CCNP BSCI Official Exam Certification Guide, Fourth Edition, is indeed a best breed of Cisco® exam study guide which specifically focuses on the objective of CCNP BSCI 642-901 exam. The study guide comprises of over 600 pages divided into 21 chapters. Which covers essential routing principles, EIGRP, OSPF and IS-IS in dept as well as basic BGP configuration.
The study guide has concentrated a bit more on Multicasting and multicast routing and the IPv6 is explained well but not in too dept. The best part I liked about the CCNP BSCI Official Exam Certification Guide, Fourth Edition, is the Cisco IOS® routing features.
The CCNP BSCI Official Exam Certification Guide, Fourth Edition, comes with a companion CD from boson which consists of an electronics books and more than 200 practice questions which also included simulation-bases questions available in study mode, practice mode and flash card format.
Some of the features which I liked most in the CCNP BSCI Official Exam Certification Guide, Fourth Edition, “Do I know this already?” quizzes and “Foundation Summaries” that start off each chapter. These allow the reader to assess what they already know about an upcoming section and what they need to focus on. The end-of-chapter “Q&A” will solidify any knowledge you have gained or need to review. Also the scenarios provided at the end of the chapters are worth from exam point of view.
Overall a good supplement for the exam, but the CCNP BSCI Official Exam Certification Guide, Fourth Edition, cannot be a sole resource for the exam. It’s always good to use the resources available at the Cisco learning websites. Finally I would rate 4 out of 5 for this study guide. Better luck folks and hope to see you all passing the CCNP BSCI 642-901 exam at first attempt.
