in CCNP
Ugh! This is the first series I am disappointed in, 5 videos in and it's CCNA level switching. I even heard Jeremy mention the old BCMSN so i'm guessing this is extremely old.
Etherchannel and onto HSRP and CEF is good CCNP stuff but i'm shocked to see basic VLAN to STP/VTP being rehashed.

Modularity and Design Simplicity:
Think of the 2:00 a.m. test—if you were awakened in the
middle of the night because of a network problem and had to figure out the
traffic flows in your network while you were half asleep, could you do it?

The first 2/3'rds of the SWITCH OCG book I remember being not that much harder than the CCNA as well. It's the WLAN, PVLANs, 802.1x, and other stuff that gets people on this exam.
So far i'm glad to have went with switch first, I might sit it very soon. Going to hit the OCG when it arrives and see how it goes.

To me, it does not go into enough detail. I purchased the INE CCNP series and I am really liking it. When comparing CBT Nuggets to INE, I thought that CBT was much better for CCNA and INE seems to be much better for the CCNP. Just my opinion.
