Initial Greetings to all

Hello all:

Im another noob on the forum looking for Cisco experience. I work for a company doing half project management for network support and half supporting the Cisco devices.

I have the three main books to study for my CCNA... do you guys recommend anything else?

This is what I use:

Intro and ICND book by Wendel Odum
CCNA Study Guide by Todd Lammle
CCNA FastPass by Todd Lammle
2 month subscription to ****.com (prep questions)
Bosun Netsim (network simulator)
CCNA Flash Cards and Exam Practice Pack
Use a forum like techexams.com to talk to people about the CCNA.

I will be taking my exam in JAN. I have read every book cover to cover. Now I practice questions, and I do labs on my simulator. I also review the Flash Cards book because it makes your foundation rock solid. I also glance at the big books on the list in case there is something I just need clarification on. This might sound like overkill to some for a CCNA, but I will be ready, and I will be ready for the CCNP with a good solid foundation.

Sounds good. I also plan to go for the CCNP and I plan to take the test in January. Im finishing the Sybex 5th ed and plan to work on the flash cards. Well met!
