Highlights

Jeremiah Wolf discusses the resources he used while studying for the CCIE certification, focusing on books that were particularly helpful.

He highly recommends 'Routing TCP Volume One Second Edition' for its comprehensive coverage of routing protocols and historical context.

The book provides insights into why protocols work the way they do, enhancing comprehension.

CCIE Routing and Switching volumes one and two are also recommended, offering around 1450 pages of in-depth information.

Narbick and Peter Pollock are the authors of the CCIE Routing and Switching books, with Peter Pollock having been the CCIE program head.

Reading these books fills in knowledge gaps and provides a solid foundation in traditional routing and switching.

Cisco SD-WAN book serves as a study guide for the certification and is useful for understanding software-defined networking.

Software-defined networking is a growing field, but staying up-to-date with documentation is crucial due to its rapidly changing nature.

Software-Defined Access book is considered okay, with small, dense screenshots making it difficult to read but still containing useful information.

All IP Multicast Volume One is a challenging read but necessary for understanding multicast, which is heavily featured on the CCIE exam.

IPv6 Networks book makes understanding IPv6 easier and is recommended for those finding IPv6 intimidating.

Python is required for the CCIE exam, and the book recommended is approachable and conversational in style, making it an easy read.

CCI Enterprise Infrastructure Foundation book comes with a 2500-page lab guide after registration, which is considered a complete package for CCIE preparation.

Cisco Validated Design guides are recommended for additional reading, as they may contain specific questions that appear on the exam.

Jeremiah emphasizes the importance of making notes after the exam and researching further due to the specificity of some exam questions.

He suggests that the current CCIE exam format may need to change due to the complexity and time-consuming nature of software-defined tasks.

The video concludes with a promise of a future video comparing the CCIE book to the Narbix course and the actual exam.

Transcripts

hello and welcome back to my basement

This is Jeremiah wolf and in this video

we're going to talk about some of the

resources I used

in studying for the ccie this video

specifically about books I'm going to be

making some other videos about some of

the other resources so stay tuned I

didn't want to do one giant video

because people don't don't watch those

so just to try to help people out and

actually make it more easily to consume

so let's go ahead and we'll get started

again these are just the books that I

read

um all right so starting off routing TCP

volume one second edition this is a

phenomenal book it is absolutely

phenomenal I can't say I cannot say

enough good about this book it is so

well written it is so well written you

learn so much just not only just about

the protocols

um and don't be don't be put off just

because it says routing it says routing

TCP I think when I first saw this book I

thought it was just about just about TCP

like a thousand Pages just about tcpap

which I'm sure they could write but this

is about all the different routing

protocols and and everything uh it's

it's pretty comprehensive

um just it's a it's a fantastic book and

it goes into a lot of the history behind

the protocols and it's what's

interesting is

when you learn the history of the

protocols oftentimes it helps you to

understand how they work why they work

the way they do it really makes

comprehension a lot better so

um I just I absolutely love this this

book it's two books actually volume one

uh and volume two the first one 944

Pages second one almost 1200 Pages

fantastic books uh absolutely uh must

read in my opinion

next we go into CCI routing and

switching in volume one volume two

volume one volume two so about 800 pages

and 650 Pages for the two volumes very

good books uh written by narbick and

Peter Pollock and Peter as I I'm pretty

sure was the ccie program head

uh for a while at least I don't think he

is any more but he was until maybe a

year or two ago

I'm pretty sure about that really good

books the thing that I like is between

the tcpip and the routing and switching

you're getting you're filling in a lot

of the gaps so one book might not really

go into detail about one thing but the

other book will vice versa there is a

couple things that seem to contradict

each other very minor very very minor

but it's going to get you thinking and

you know you'll you'll you can go

research it or lab it up and find out

what the truth is

um

yeah really really good books and again

just to be clear on the exam a huge

chunk is still traditional routing and

switching like that's not going anywhere

software defined is getting bigger and

bigger and bigger but routing and

switching is still there in a major

major way so these books are pretty good

now I will say that the CCA routing

switching Volume 5 or version 5 volume

one and two I think they might be out of

print you can definitely still get them

they're still out there if used if

nothing else and then the e-books are

definitely still available

uh

uh Cisco SD Wan book this is actually

like the study guide for the

certification but it's also just sort of

a general book so it's interesting

because if you look at it it doesn't say

like official study guide because they

basically made one book it's the

official study guide and just the learn

how to use sd-wan book

um you know this is going to present

things in a easier to digest way but

software-defined stuff is changing all

the time so I do recommend reading this

but don't kid yourself you're also going

to have to read a lot of documentation

to make sure you're you're up to date

especially with the the version 1.1 of

the exam coming out where they're using

more up-to-date software it's a pretty

good book it's well well written decent

book not phenomenal but but pretty good

um not a whole lot to say about that the

on the exam the

sd-wan portion the software defined

portion it takes up a huge amount of

time I spent more time

is that true

I think it was about 50 50 of the time

that I spent doing like traditional

route switch and software defined

the actual tasks that you do like you do

so much more traditional compared to

software defined but the

software-defined task just takes so much

longer so uh that's that's a discussion

for another day but I I wouldn't be

surprised if Cisco has to change the

whole ccia method of testing because the

software-defined stuff is just so slow

that to get a a proper test they might

have to go back to two days like they

did you know back in the day

I don't know I don't know we'll see what

happens we'll see what happens but um

yeah so this is a decent book well worth

reading uh next is software defined

access

uh this book's okay it's honestly it's

not great the the problem with with the

problem with this book so okay so in the

software-defined wide area network even

though

most of what you do is gooey and on the

exam almost everything you do not almost

I think everything you do will be gooey

based

you can do a lot like policies and stuff

via the CLI like you can do a lot via

CLI in this book and the actual test by

the way the um the specialist test the

uh I forget what's called

um test you a lot on the

uh the CLI components of sd-wan

um

and so so there's a lot of of that

CLI in the book but when we come over to

software-defined access it's all GUI

and so what you're looking at is a book

full of

small screen captures of dense gooey

configuration Pages they're almost

unreadable so while there is information

to be gleaned in this book

it's I'm going to call it okay two stars

might be like one and a half Stars would

probably be better but I didn't have a

Graphic for that

um so you know it's it's okay

it's I don't know the documentation

might actually be better to read but you

know it's it is what it is

uh all IP multicast volume one look you

need you need multicast okay there's a

lot of multicast on the exam

um not so much in terms of configuration

but in the design section there was a

ton of questions about multicast

and you know who knows what that's going

to be in the next iteration there might

be more Hands-On multicast I don't know

but there was plenty of questions about

multicast

um I know that that when it comes to

network engineering the the majority of

Engineers have very little experience

with multicast I know that when we

started narbix class and he asked

everybody like what's your

what's your fear point you know what

what is it that you really or don't or

need feel like you you're really weak on

everybody with maybe one exception said

multicast like everybody was concerned

about multicast

so you're going to need to learn

multicast this book is

rough it's a rough read I don't even

think I made it halfway through I'm just

going to be straight with you narbick

had his own once once I finally got a

hold of narbick's multicast section of

his class not the class but of his lab

guide I gave up on this book his lab

guide was so much better it basically is

a book it's like a 300 page book just on

multicast it's it's crazy

um

pretty well written better than this

book so but if you don't have that

you're going to have to learn it

somewhere here is the book there's

volume one and volume two I actually

purchased both but you don't need volume

two volume one should cover most of what

you need I think

uh IPv6 photos this was a great book

look IPv6 is for a lot of guys really

scary it's big numbers it's doing

everything different it seems similar

enough but it's similar enough to ipv4

oftentimes just to mess you up

um because it's it is different so you

can make mistakes thinking that it's too

similar but this book was so well

written like really well written this is

another book that was almost enjoyable

to read like I actually looked forward

to sitting down and reading this book

tons of great information it really made

IPv6

understandable there have been some

changes with IPv6 over the years so I

think that the only thing of real note

was like the private addressing I think

this book

because the IPv6 has gone back and forth

about private addressing it was there

then they kind of got rid of it and then

they added it back in and so I forget I

think this book says there is no real

private address space but there kind of

is so it's whatever but that's the only

the only thing

um on the exam there wasn't too much

IPv6 but let's be honest it's only going

to get more and more IPv6 is coming I

can't believe it's still this far and to

be frank once you read this book you're

going to be an IPv6 fan you're going to

be like yeah why aren't we doing

IPv6 because it's not hard it's so

powerful it fixes so many problems I'm

sure it has its own problems but but

once you understand it it's great and

this book really helps you understand it

fantastic book this one is also out of

print

um so I think I bought a used copy

and it is digital it's available digital

it's available in the um

O'Reilly subscription library but great

book great great book and then

um so you're going to need some python

you don't need too much at least not in

the current version of the exam but you

do need to do no basic python

I like this book but you know I'm

there's probably almost certainly better

books out there this just happens to be

the one that I bought and I read

um

easy read in terms of programming the

one thing I like about this book

um in terms of programming books and

I've read tons of programming books over

the years

this one is is well written and it's

easy to it's easily approachable it's

it's very conversational in its Style

it's not too dry so it's a decent read

again there's almost certainly better

books out there there's so many of them

I don't know what's but this is a decent

one this one is also out of print so

obviously it's been replaced probably by

something better there's not a new

version of this that I found

but it's a good book uh you and for for

the current version of the exam which

again is being replaced very soon

um you you don't need very much python

so really like the first I don't

probably couple hundred pages of this

book is all you would need

alternatively you can take the python

institute's level one course that would

certainly be enough for um

for the ccie it's a great course it's

about takes about 40 hours tons of labs

good stuff highly highly recommended but

if you also want a a written reference

this is a decent book

uh okay and then

in terms of proper books the final one

we have is the CCI Enterprise

infrastructure Foundation I have a whole

video just about this book that I put

out like I don't know a year ago at this

point or no not quite that long maybe

nine months ago

um

prices are all all over the place I did

not pay anywhere near this but this is

what it seems to be going for now

um it's a fantastic book but what's

amazing is and I said this into my other

video about this book it's not the book

that it's amazed it's amazing when you

get the book you register this is why

you can't get it second hand because you

have to register the book and when you

register you get access to files from

The Cisco press

the Pearson website

and those files include a

2500 page lab guide

some of it you can't use some of it is

software defined and it is

not like you can't you couldn't do it in

your lab it's it's really weird I don't

know how why it was included in in the

book it's you basically need

oh excuse me you basically need uh

narbix racks to do it so it's weird I

don't know why it was included

but 2500 Pages a lab guide phenomenal

covers just about I'm going to do

another video comparing this book to

narbix course compared to the actual

exam and like do you really need the

course can you get away with the book so

I'm going to put out a video of that in

the next week or two

but that's really what you want you're

buying this book not for the book itself

you're buying the book for the lab guide

that is an extra after you register the

book the book itself whatever it's fine

but that's not what you want you want

the lab guide that comes with all the

Evangel topologies that you need to do

all of the labs so it's it is a complete

package it's phenomenal and even at 135

dollars it's a steal

uh so worth it if you're going to do

narbix course

if you're going to pay the full the four

thousand dollars remember you don't need

this book

this book is is literally a subset of

his course so he went through his course

and about half of what is in the lab

guide you get with his course is in this

book

but the question is is it is the other

half all that necessary I don't know

just yet but this book at in and of

itself phenomenal

and then the the final thing is um

validated Cisco validated designs and

documentation you're going to spend a

lot of time reading these just now

because I was trying to find something

there is a question on the exam

that I remembered the first time I took

it I came home and it took me a couple

hours this is and this is the problem

right like

they give you time so much time on the

design portion of the exam

that I think they want you to go look

through documentation that's great

but even with that it's not enough time

like so just now I I knew the right

answer and I know that I found it before

but I could not find it again and I

spent probably a half hour looking for

it so it's a specific question that was

on the exam that I eventually found the

answer to before taking it the second

time

and just now looking I I can't find it

so it I know it's out there because I

found it a couple weeks ago but uh it's

just that's one of those things it's

like that's why it's so frustrating

because I feel like you have to you have

to go take the exam you have to

um

make as many notes about the exam as you

can in your car after the exam come home

and then research you spend days and

weeks researching all this stuff the

couple hours they give you on the exam

to go to the documentation not enough

and the questions like the one question

that I'm thinking of right now obviously

I can't tell you what it was

but it is so specific and I just don't

think that most people are ever going to

like know that

it's just not really going to come up

it's one of those Cisco questions it's

like

in the moment it's it's a design

question so it's not like you know

you're going to be like oh the

Network's down I got to know this thing

I gotta figure it out real quick it's

something you're going to come across

potentially while you're doing a design

and it's related to only like the

smallest of something so

it's just not going to come up and the

fact that they're asking it on the CCI

it's just it's frustrating because it's

just like it's like an Fu question it's

like haha here's this bit of trivia do

you know it it's like yes I know it

because I went and spent hours trying to

find it buried in your documentation

anyway we're getting off track but I do

recommend reading the validated design

guides there's only maybe three or four

of them that you really need to read

They're each about 100 pages so it's

only like one additional book there's a

layer two stuff there's the

software defined software

software defined way and

software-defined access there's a couple

other ones I don't know there's not that

much reading but there you go okay so

that's that's all the the primary

reading that I did now I did tons of

other reading in documentation trying to

research things trying to solve problems

I was having the lab so I did tons of

other reading but that's for in terms of

like formal sit down and read this is

everything I did there'll be a list of

all the books uh and links to Amazon in

the description I don't necessarily

recommend you buy them from Amazon

oftentimes Cisco press has better deals

but just for simplicity's sake links are

to Amazon in the the doobly-doo all

right see you next time
