CCNA Security Lab Manual Version 2 (Lab Companion)

In my experience, NetAcad does a really great job when it comes to explaining the in's and out's of the theory, which is helpful when I need more than just a command guide and a few configuration examples. I paired this up with the OCG by Omar Santos and, looking back, it was definitely a good idea not to depend solely on Cisco Press. The OCG lightly touches on a lot of topics that the exam expects you to know in great detail, but luckily I could usually get the clarification I need by doing the lab or reading through the lab intro section.What I liked the most was how certain labs were done twice (e.g., clientless/Any-Connect/site-to-site VPNs, ASA), first in CLI and then on ASDM GUI. This let me build a solid understanding of what CLI commands I needed and what each line did, and then build on that understanding by learning how to implement those same CLI commands via GUI.I took the CCNA Security 210-260 exam on 11/29 and passed by a comfortable margin, so I definitely recommend this lab book for anyone else who's also thinking of taking the plunge.

The CCNA Security Lab Manual Version 2 is great to have. It is the same as the online course Labs & Packet Tracers.The actual CCNA Course Book Version 2 is not very descriptive and lacks any Figures (Pictures) that are said to go with it. So you may not be quite sure what they are saying and you have no examples to show you....

Really good book! I recommend!

The labs are correct in this one for the most part. It is a good book to guide you through the curriculum

great book for test prep

Worthless.
