Ciscoさんとしても、CCNPとCCIEの難易度に対して「GAP」という認識はしっかりとあったようで、タイトル通り素晴らしい参考書が 2017/06/01 に発売されることになりました。
CCIE関連の良書は延期延期ということが多く、最後には発売中止という流れもよくあったのですが、今回はしっかりと発売されました。
CCNPとCCIEの「gap」を埋めてくれるために以下の内容を学ぶことができます。
• Discover the physical topology for any network deployment
• Master Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) foundations and advanced features
• Deploy and optimize PPP and use its full set of capabilities
• Implement Dynamic Multipoint VPNs (DMVPNs) from start to finish
• Use IP Prefix lists in prefix filtration, packet filtering, and other applications
• Handle any RIPv2 deployment scenario n Implement EIGRP, including classical and named operation modes and interoperation
• Use advanced OSPF techniques, including route filtration, LSA operation, stub configurations, and update filtering
• Understand what happens when you perform redistribution, and manage problematic scenarios
• Manage complex BGP capabilities, including Adjacency State Machine
• Operate IPv6 in complex network environments, including DMVPN
• Focus on QoS mechanisms that CCIE still covers, including traffic marking, classification, policing, and shaping
• Deploy IPsec VPN solutions including GRE/IPSec tunnel mode, multi-site VPN technologies, and their encryption
• Implement multicasting in environments requiring end-to-end IPv4 and IPv6 transport
• Address operational and deployment issues involving MPLS VPNv4 tunnels
1248ページとボリュームが多いですが、毎日少しずつ読んでいけばその積み重ねによって読破できますから、コツコツとがんばりましょう！
