Review:
If only my calculus text had been this good. "Internetworking with TCP/IP" is intended as a text for a course in the problem of communication between networks with dissimilar protocols, with reference to the use of the TCP/IP protocol suite as a means to overcome the problem. This should not prevent those interested in using TCP/IP from looking at it: the material is quite complete and detailed. As both text and reference, it succeeds admirably. After the first two chapters introduce general "inter"networking concepts and communications technology, three sections of chapters deal successively with basic connection services, routing and gateways, and then move into applications issues. The chapters are many (twenty-seven) a... Rest of this review on the detail page

Review:
For network administrators, support professionals, and system designers, intimate knowledge of the network protocols that are the foundation of the Internet is crucial. Internet Core Protocols: The Definitive Guide is a superb summary of the nitty-gritty details of the most important Net standards. This book assumes you have a working knowledge of networks and a basic familiarity with TCP/IP. Unlike the cursory coverage of TCP/IP found in many Internet titles, this presentation includes low-level details that aid in troubleshooting. It also includes a copy of Shomiti Surveyor Lite--a utility for analyzing network tr... Rest of this review on the detail page
