Actually, to cover everything the various flavors of IOS does, you would probably need different nutshell books targeted at different audiences, perhaps one for each flavor of IOS. (Enterprise, IBM, Desktop, ISP...) I don't think too many people on this list would care about the SNA $%#^ that Cisco-Blue does. --zawada At 05:33 PM 11/8/96 -0500, Deepak Jain wrote:
Actually the Nutshell books are great. "Cisco IOS in a Nutshell" I can go for that. Aren't they the ones that also do *the* Sendmail book?

Its easy enough to put a note at the beginning of each section or perhaps some kind of icon that refferences which release a given feature is in.
That's true enough. I was just told my a vendor that the Cisco 2501A (ProLine) is actually inferior [performance-wise] to the Enterprise 2501. Not that I have ever bought a 2501A, but it was nice to know. Routing with only one protocol could cover its own book, so obviously some topics will have to be left out. I am a big fan of tomes, however, and wouldn't mind keeping a 5k page reference manual (with a killer index) in my car if I knew that there was nothing missing. -Deepak. On Fri, 8 Nov 1996, Paul J.
