I found the Cisco Press books to be quite good, especially the Catalyst Switch Config field manual. What kind of switches do you have (Cisco, 3com, HP?)
From: [email protected] Date: Tue, 7 Jul 2009 14:15:11 -0500 Subject: OT: Advice... need a network book To: [email protected] As the IT staff for a small college (just me and one other full time person in charge of distance ed support), I am the perfect example of "jack of all trades, master of none". While I'm comfortable with my skill level in regard to the servers and the workstations, I'm somewhat lost when it comes to the network itself. By 'network' I mean terminolgy, properly configuring the switches, the wireless network, implementing a VLAN, etc. Therr hasn't been any budget for attending any kind of training in some time, so I'm looking for suggestions for good books to train myself. Suggestions? Please? Thanks in advance. -- Organization and good planning are just crutches for people that can't handle stress and caffeine. - unknown _________________________________________________________________ Lauren found her dream laptop.
