This book & 101 are good, surely hard work to put all this information together, still a lot can be done to better organize this book. CiscoPress books are just awesome, without any errors, maybe it is due to numerous people are involved in compiling a single book.

I found this study guide to be very well written with all the information I needed to pass the F5 201 exam. The chapters were well laid out and the progression through the subjects flowed nicely, building on the previous topics. There are also many labs included to re-enforce the concepts in action and deepen the understanding of the concepts being discussed. I have worked with F5 equipment for over 10 years and this guide was just what I needed to fill in the gaps of the many topics that my work does not touch on for the exam. I also learned a couple things about my current environment that could be improved and secured a little better. I find the book to be an good overall reference guide to have and have already gone back to it for clarification on a subject from the exam that impacts my current environment. The amount of information in this guide makes this a very welcome addition to my bookshelf. Thank you Philip and Steven for the excellent work.
