Goals of This Book

This book's primary objective is to impart candidates with the practical knowledge needed to pass the Remote Access examination. Theoretical knowledge by itself is insufficient to pass a Cisco examination. You need practical knowledge to complement theory. Building functional, working networks is the best way to use theory and techniques to develop practical knowledge.

A network professional looking to improve his or her remote-access network skills can also use this book as an on-the-job reference. The lab exercises closely follow real-life scenarios to help candidates apply proven Cisco techniques in their work environments.

This book's main objective is to help you pass the Remote Access examination. To that end, it covers the topics you need to know without going into excessive detail. You can judge the areas in which you are weak and focus on them. The primary goal is to help you achieve the practical skills needed to be successful.
