CCIE Routing and Switching Practice Labs helps candidates prepare for the CCIE Routing and Switching lab exam, with practice to hone their skills and gauge their readiness by completing self-contained labs. The book helps CCIE candidates learn complex techniques and troubleshooting methods. It contains 10 complete practice lab scenarios, each one covering in-depth questions for all technologies tested in the Routing and Switching track, including Cisco device operation, general networking theory, bridging and LAN switching, IP, IP routing, desktop protocols, quality of service, WAN, LAN, security, multiservice, and IP multicasting. Each complete lab scenario is presented in exam style format to echo the 8-hour lab exam. Each lab begins with an introduction, including an overview of the lab, equipment list, and instructions for completing the lab. A section on setting up the lab follows, and after each lab there are configurations and routing tables with the required answers. There are also lab de-briefs, output examples, and cut-and-paste configurations on the CD-ROM. A scoring system lets the reader know if they are ready to take the actual exam or need to continue their study. In addition to the practice labs, the book also contains test preparation advice and resources.
