CCNA Exam #640-607 Certification Guide (3rd Edition)
by Wendell Odom
It's almost a prerequisite for employment in the data networking industry
(and, if you believe the voice-over-IP people, the voice networking industry
as well): The Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) proves that you
know your way up and down a protocol stack, can tell a bridge from a repeater,
and can configure a packet filter. It has some emphasis on Cisco Systems
products, naturally, but the CCNA's scope is so broad as to be relevant
no matter whose gear you use. Cisco CCNA Exam #640-607 Certification Guide
is the definitive work on the CCNA subjects and is one of the two best
values among the training aids available (the other is Todd Lammle's CCNA:
Cisco Certified Network Associate Study Guide, Deluxe Edition). This book
distinguishes itself with the quality of its practice questions and lab
exercises, its knowledge-assessment quizzes that help you decide how to
use your study time, and its clear and numerous conceptual diagrams.
Wendell Odom, both a Cisco Certified Internetwork Engineer (CCIE) and
a Cisco-rated trainer, doesn't spend too much time on test-preparation
gewgaws, as do many books with CCNA in their titles. This is a reference
and tutorial book through and through, and you'll use it long after you've
passed the test (and you will pass the test, if you study Odom's work hard
enough). He's a master at combining explanatory text (and graphics) with
reference materials (like tables of commands and their modifiers). Plus,
there's a CD-ROM containing exam simulations in the newly revised format.

SSH,
The Secure Shell: The Definitive Guide
by Daniel J. Barrett, Richard Silverman
The suite of utility applications that Unix users and administrators
find indispensable--Telnet, rlogin, FTP, and the rest--can in fact prove
to be the undoing of interconnected systems. The Secure Shell, a.k.a. SSH
(which isn't a true shell at all) provides your otherwise attack-prone
utilities with the protection they need. SSH: The Secure Shell: The Definitive
Guide explains how to use SSH at all levels. In a blended sequence, the
book explains what SSH is all about, how it fits into a larger security
scheme, and how to employ it as an everyday user with an SSH client. More
technically detailed chapters show how to configure a SSH server--several
variants are covered--and how to integrate SSH with non-Unix client platforms.
As befits its detail- and variation-rich subject, this book comprises
many specialized sections, each dealing with some specific aspect of use
or configuration (setting up access control at the account level, for example,
or generating keys for a particular SSH server). The writing is both informative
and fun to read; the authors switch back and forth between text and entry-and-response
listings from SSH machines. They often run through a half-dozen or more
variants on the same command in a few pages, providing the reader with
lots of practical information. The discussion of how SSH fits into a Kerberos
Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) is great, as is the advice on defeating
particular kinds of attacks. --David Wall - Amazon.com

802.11
Wireless Networks: The Definitive Guide (O'Reilly Networking)
by Matthew S. Gast
Among network designers and administrators, wired Ethernet is a known
quantity. Plenty is known about how to build good twisted-pair network
infrastructures, how to keep them secure, and how to monitor their excess
capacity. Not so for the wireless Ethernet networks (built around the IEEE
802.11x standards)--these hold much more mystery for even experienced network
designers. 802.11 Wireless Networks: The Definitive Guide aims to codify
the body of knowledge needed to design and maintain wireless local area
networks (LANs). The authors succeed admirably in this, covering what installation
and administration teams need to know and digging into information of use
to driver writers and others working at lower levels. The only significant
detail that's been excluded has to do with security--a notorious weak point
of 802.11x LANs. The authors cover the feeble but widely used Wired Equivalent
Privacy (WEP) authentication protocol in detail and devote another whole
chapter to 802.1x, which is an emerging authentication scheme based on
Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP). The author has considerable skill
in communicating information graphically and does a great job of using
graphs to show how communications frequencies shift over time and how conversations
among access points and network nodes progress over time. This is indeed
an authoritative document. --David Wall - Amazon.com
