1 Campus Leven Switching a la Cisco
This book describes switching, a la the Cisco approach, across a campus of closely located buildings such as at a university, military base, or corporate campus. It is aimed at the student working on the third of four courses leading to the Cisco Certified Network Professional. It builds on the concepts tought at the CCNA exam and covers more advanced switching concepts. The resulting knowledge should provide you with the knowledge and skills necessary to use multilayer switching to implement campus networks using Cisco Catalyst switches, and to interface to other equipment as necessary.
Besides the test, this book is also aimed at the network administrators who are responsible for implementing and troubleshooting enterprise level Cisco routers and router configurations.
This is not an introductory book, it is assumed that the reader has at a minimum an understanding of the vocabulary of switching.
