This book can get a bad rap for multiple reasons. The first several prints of this book left out critical information that was needed to pass the exam such as SNMP, Syslog and IP SLA all of which can now be found in the back of the latest print (6th) under the Appendix. This additional information can also be found on Dave Hucaby's blog. So with the updated book, is it enough to pass the switch exam? In my opinion, no it does not. While the book has essential information for understanding switch technology, it does not contain all the information you will need to pass the exam. Several key areas in which is lacks more in-depth information includes Networking Planning, Verification (one chapter in the book) and COS/QOS levels (one page). There may be more, but these are the areas I felt I was under prepared when I sat the exam using just this book and hands-on labs. If you're preparing for the exam, please do yourself a favor and either search the internet for additional information on these topics or invent in additional books that cover them more in detail.

With that said, the book overall is written well and the concepts are not difficult to understand. Do not let the small size of this book deceive you on how difficult the SWITCH exam is. In contrast, I actually found the SWITCH exam more difficult than the ROUTE exam. Overall, the book is an excellent resource, and I would give it an overall 3.5 stars (if I could). I would hardly classify it as an official certification guide (as others have stated) due to the fact that it is missing critical information needed to pass the exam.
