About the Book

In-depth explanations of networking and TCP/IP protocols simplify the process of learning to build, maintain, and troubleshoot networks in this hands-on technology guide. Covering both Linux and Windows, this book is applicable to almost any network, and includes visual information in the form of diagrams and screenshots, making ideas easier to understand. A reprint of the 2003 edition, this thorough reference also explains how to easily build small test networks to practice on and includes troubleshooting information throughout to help users solve complex problems with a deep understanding of the concepts. A focus on what users will need to know in their day-to-day work keeps the range of topics narrow while many detailed appendices provide extra insight into broader issues.

Review :
This book has been touted as the 21st-century upgrade to the classic TCP/IP Illustrated (by Richard W. Stevens), a series which has held a prominent place on the shelves of many a network administrator for the last decade. These are big boots to fill, but Practical TCP/IP does an impressive job. In over 800 pages of well-organized and well-illustrated text, there is no fat, but rather a lean and -- yes -- practical treatment of every major TCP/IP networking concept.A" You won't find a better TCP/IP book!A" Covers TCP/IP and networking in general tremendously. The beginning of each chapter can be read by a newbie/undergraduate very easily, and by the ends of chapters you are treated to rocket science. Just stop reading when you can't take any more in. And the second time you read it further develop your knowledge.A" Accuracy is superb - written by someone obviously knowledgable in the subject, and able to communicate this knowledge extremely effectively.A" It cannot be emphasized enough that this is a hands-on book, not just a paper tiger. The key difference between it and TCP/IP Illustrated is that Practical TCP/IP walks the reader through detailed exercises at every step of the way. It shows real tools in use, making it easy for the beginner and even the experienced reader to learn new techniques quickly and interactively.A" This book is an excellent book for taking your computer networking career from mediocre to top notch. Excellent advice on designing, using and troubleshooting TCP/IP networks.A"
