    Yeah network protocols can be confusing at first.. especially differenciating them. But once you get them down it's easy piezi japanesy..
    Xinxing is the hairy one.

    Also, keep in mind the "WAN" protos that you are looking at, aren't what you think, or may think they are.

    PPP, PPTP, RAS, and ICA = Remote access proto's. They are a means of access to other Servers/workstations through the WAN

    IPSec, SSL, L2TP, L2F, and Kerberos = security through the remote access. It's a means of how the two access communicate through the WAN, in a secure inviornment.

    Clear as mud :)

    If you have the exam cram book, this will help you to understand how they work. Remember, don't get frustrated. We were, and some are still are where you are right now. I too am about to take my test. Know you're material, know the objectives, and have plenty of practice tests, and you will do fine. I have the Third edition of Sybex Network + by David Groth. GREAT BOOK! As well as the exam cram 2 book for Network+ I have read that these two book offer a leathal combo for killing that exam the first time! You'll do fine!

    Best of luck
