Introduction
Is This Book for You?
ОглавлениеCompTIA Network+ Review Guide is designed to be a succinct, portable exam review guide that can be used either in conjunction with a more complete study program (such as Sybex’s CompTIA Network+ Study Guide, computer-based training courseware, or a classroom/lab environment) or as an exam review for those who don’t need more extensive test preparation. It isn’t my goal to give the answers away but rather to identify topics on which you can expect to be tested and to provide sufficient coverage of those topics.
Perhaps you’ve been working with information technologies for many years. The thought of paying lots of money for a specialized IT exam preparation course probably doesn’t sound too appealing. What can they teach you that you don’t already know, right? Be careful, though. Many experienced network administrators have walked confidently into the test center only to walk sheepishly out of it after failing an IT exam. After you’ve finished reading this book, you should have a clear idea of how your understanding of networking technologies matches up with the expectations of the Network+ test writers.
Perhaps you’re relatively new to the world of IT – drawn to it by the promise of challenging work at a higher salary? You’ve just waded through an 800-page study guide, or you’ve taken a class at a local training center. Lots of information to keep in your head, isn’t it? Well, by organizing this book according to CompTIA’s exam objectives and by breaking up the information into concise, manageable pieces, I’ve created what I think is the handiest exam review guide available. Throw it in your backpack and carry it to work with you or get an additional copy of it on Kindle. As you read the book, you’ll be able to identify quickly those areas you know best and those that require a more in-depth review.
The goal of the Review Guide series is to help Network+ candidates brush up on the subjects on which they can expect to be tested on the Network+ exam. For complete in-depth coverage of the technologies and topics involved, we recommend CompTIA Network+ Study Guide, from Sybex.
