All,

I have recently moved into a new job-role, working in the Network
Support and Engineering team. I have a CCNA, a few years of experience
in the Windows and Linux world, but quite frankly, the sight of a
Cisco config scares me! Could anyone recommend some books to ease the
pain please?

The company has a large IP network, with IPSec/GRE VPNs, Multicast,
Layer 3 switching, Catalyst 6500 switches running CatOS or IOS with
BGP and EIGRP routing protocols.

Can anyone recommend any books to get me started please? I need to
refresh my knowledge on the basics, plus get started on IOS/CatOS
upgrades, VLAN interfaces, VPN tunnels, EIGRP and BGP.

Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

All the best,

I thought you mentioned you had your CCNA.
As for books. The Cisco documnetation site is just a wealth of excellent
documents.

James.
