Network+ Certification for Dummies

Editorial Reviews by Amazon

Network+ Certification for Dummies (With CD-ROM)

Product Description
CompTIA, the A+, Network+, Server+, i-Net+ – and the vast array of other pluses – certification outfit has revised its certification program for the hard-working network technician with an excellent general knowledge of networks and internetworking technologies. However, unlike other networking certifications, such as MCSE, CNE, or CCNA, Network+ covers all kinds of general network technology knowledge and practices, instead of revolving around just the brand-specific stuff. Apple, Microsoft, Novell, and other manufacturers and their products are included on the Network+ test, making it the true measure of a networking technician’s overall grasp of networking and internetworking technology.

Obviously, you’re considering Network+ certification for one of the following reasons:

  • You’re planning to become Network+ certified no matter what, but you don’t quite know how to achieve your goal.


CCNA For Dummies

CCNA for Dummies

What was that whizzing sound? It was you, passing the CCNA certification exam. After you’ve covered all of Cisco Systems’ exam objectives in CCNA For Dummies, such tasks as following network protocols, routing, and maintaining network security will be new tools to add to your skill set.

First, expect to become familiar with the language of the exam with the expert guidance of your certified authors. Then, find your way around the workings of the OSI model and its layers: the data link, network, transport, and upper layers. Routers become manageable as you practice commands and algorithms. And when you’re comfortable with network protocols, you’ll move on to LAN and WAN switching.

The book’s CD-ROM helps you assess your weak spots through a test engine and a variety of exam scenarios, and ten sites to boost your studying are also included. Remember: It’s just a test, and at this point, it’s open book!



It has been a long 5 weeks since I have been home. So much has changed around me. Soon, I will be leaving again to goto another state with work, and I will only be home about one weekend a month. Traveling is hard, but I have to say, I love my job.

As for me… Today I am celebrating yet another birthday. This year, i gave myself a birthday present of getting 2 certifications. I passed the Security+ and iNet+ (CompTIA) today. Both tests I felt very comfortable taking and did not have any problems at all. Working in computers, being around both subjects day in and day out, and having computers as a hobby (as well as web, networks and security as a hobbies) made the tests relatively easy for me.
