Never has something cried out for a cookbook quite as much as Cisco's Internetwork Operating System (IOS). IOS is powerful and flexible, but also confusing and daunting. Most tasks can be accomplished in several different ways. And you don't want to spend precious time figuring out which way is best when you're trying to solve a problem quickly.That's what this cookbook is for.

Not only does this book provide excellent config examples, it goes through each line of the config and explains what the line is doing for the config. It's also the best explaination of the detailed options for each command I have seen in any Cisco book.

I purchased the 1st edition and it is been the best Cisco resource, if you need to find out something quick, reach for this book. So when I saw the 2nd Edition I knew I had to update to it, same great book with even more.

I cannot praise this book highly enough.

Published for the engineer by engineers with 'real' real world examples of working configurations.

It has already helped me out with one small functional change which will go to all router throughout the company as part of the default config.

Useful, relevant, easy to find answers & just unbelievably indispensible

You won't be configuring a router from scratch with this book, but it shows you how to handle about 90% of the common scenarios that you'll encounter with a Cisco device. Highly recommended if you are someone like me, who knows just enough IOS to get around and handle the basics, but configure these things maybe once a year and will never know enough IOS to do it on their own.

Andrew Rinaldo said
This book is pretty much an all in one book, it won't prepare you to pass any exam, but it will help you in your work if you have to do something with your cisco router when it's outside your scope.

i found this book is very well written, it gives you an example of how to configure something, then it will give you a detailed explanation of what it does and other options that you can do to adjust your need.

more things that i found very interesting is the "handling queuing and congestion" part which helped me implement qos for my router and make my network runs better.

there are many other interesting chapters for me, which will be too much to review. but i will recommend this to any body who works with cisco devices to get this book for in job reference or even just for study because this book will teach you more than what a ccna can do.
