This text offers an approach for mastering the skills necessary to pass MCSE Exam 70-59 (Internetworking with Microsoft TCP/IP). Each chapter focuses on one exam objective category, and chapter headings correspond to specific exam objectives. Chapters begin with "Official Word" and "Inside Scoop" sections, which are bulletined summaries of official exam objectives. Following these lists is "Are You Prepared?", a short self-assessment test of three to five multiple-choice questions with answers and cross references to chapter content. Chapter content includes a concise conceptual discussion of essential exam material. Features include test tips, test traps, "Know This" (exam prep notes) and "Pop Quizzes". This is followed by a "Practice Your Skills Section", consisting of three to five hands-on or critical thinking review activities. Chapters close with "Have You Mastered?" - five to ten multiple-choice questions with answers, analysis and cross-references to chapter discussion.
