This book is a clear and accessible introduction to the protocols and technologies that make the Internet work. This best-selling conceptual introduction to TCP/IP internetworking protocols interweaves a clear discussion of fundamentals with the latest technologies.
The revised edition has a new focus on CIDR addressing and it also addresses MPLS and IP switching technology, traffic scheduling, VOIP, Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN), and Selective Acknowledgement (SACK). The author has thoroughly revamped this classic guide, sharpening its focus onto day`s most widely used Internet protocols and technologies, as well as those that are rapidly growing in importance.
The text however retains the approach that has made previous editions so valuable. Essential concepts and mechanisms of internetworking are carefully explained, demonstrating how networks can be architected to function as one unified communication system. The author clearly introduces network technologies like Ethernet, the design principles of the Internet, addressing and routing, programming over TCP, and examples of applications like email and the World Wide Web.
As Prof. David Clark of MIT says in his foreword, TCP/IP is still the glue at the core of the Internet that makes all this work. And this is still the book to read to learn about it.isbn-9788120329980
