CCNA 640-802 Exam Certification Library, Simulator Edition, is a comprehensive review and practice package for the latest CCNA^® exams.  The two books contained in this package, CCENT/CCNA ICND1 Official Exam Certification Guide, Second Edition, and CCNA ICND2 Official Exam Certification Guide, Second Edition, present complete reviews and a more challenging and realistic preparation experience.

CCENT/CCNA ICND1 Official Exam Certification Guide, Second Edition, and CCNA ICND2 Official Exam Certification Guide, Second Edition, present you with an organized test preparation routine through the use of proven series elements and techniques. "Do I Know This Already" quizzes open each chapter and allow you to decide how much time you need to spend on each section. Chapter-ending Exam Preparation Tasks sections help you drill on key concepts you must know thoroughly and help increase your speed in answering questions, a difficult hurdle many exam candidates face on the new exams. Final Preparation chapters guide you through tools and resources to help you craft your final study plan. Special troubleshooting sections help you master the complex scenarios you will face on the exam. The companion CD-ROMs contain a powerful testing engine that allows you to focus on individual topic areas or take complete, timed exams. The assessment engine also tracks your performance and provides feedback on a chapter-by-chapter basis, presenting question-by-question remediation to the text. The bonus DVDs contains over 60 minutes of personal video mentoring from the author, focused mainly on the topic of subnetting.

CCNA 640-802 Network Simulator lets you experience realistic network device response as you work through more than 3,000 hands-on tasks in three different types of labs (skill builders, configuration scenarios, and troubleshooting scenarios). Each lab includes detailed instructions, topology diagrams, hints, full answers, and complete explanations. Unlike other simulators on the market, the configuration and troubleshooting scenario labs included in the CCNA 640-802 Network Simulator are far more complex, challenging you to learn how to perform realistic network configuration and support tasks. In addition, the simulator includes extensive support of show commands that help you diagnose and resolve network problems in labs specially designed to enhance troubleshooting skills, a key component of the CCNA exam.

Well-regarded for its level of detail, assessment features, challenging practice questions, and hands-on labs,  this value-priced package provides you with more detailed information and more realistic practice exercises than any other CCNA study guide, enabling you to succeed on the exam the first time.
