Cisco Press Releases Second Edition of Best-Selling CCNA Certification Library; New Video Component Added.

INDIANAPOLIS -- Cisco Press prepares certification candidates for the CCNA(R) exam with a revised edition of the No. 1 selling preparation product, the "CCNA Official Exam Certification Library, Second Edition." The value-priced bundle now contains 30 minutes of visual instruction featuring best-selling author and senior instructor Wendell Odom, and includes the most recent printings of the "CCNA ICND" and "CCNA INTRO Exam Certification Guides."

The instructional video offers certification candidates an additional learning tool in studying for the CCNA exam. In the three video labs, Odom walks users through basic CCNA configuration tasks, including navigating router and switch command-line interface, static and connected routes, and NAT overload (PAT). "The ability to see it happening provides better visual references and gives the CCNA candidate another leg up on getting a solid grasp of the material," he says.

The two books included in the bundle, "CCNA ICND" and "CCNA INTRO Exam Certification Guides," are highly regarded for their level of detail, review questions, and exercises. The books include complete coverage of exam material and a test engine with more than 500 practice questions. Simulation-based questions, as well as challenging, interpretive multiple-choice questions, make the practice tests more like the real exam.

By combining the instructional video and both Exam Certification Guides, the "CCNA Official Exam Certification Library, Second Ed." is the most comprehensive, up-to-date, and accurate self-study preparation package available for the CCNA exam. Cisco certifications continue to be among the fastest growing and most valued certifications in the industry.

As the official publisher of Cisco networking technology and Cisco certification self-study materials, Cisco Press continues to meet the evolving needs of the networking professional.
