The Internet and Its Protocols: A Comparative Approach

摘要: The view presented in Internet and Its Protocols is at once broad deep. It covers all the common protocols how they combine to create its totality. More importantly, it describes each one completely, examining requirements addresses exact means by which does job. These descriptions include message flows, full formats, exchanges for normal error operation. They are supported numerous diagrams tables. This book's comparative approach gives you something more valuable: insight into decisions face as build maintain your network, network device, or application. Author Adrian Farrel?s experience advice will dramatically smooth path work offer improved performance a wider range of services. * Provides comprehensive, in-depth, coverage Protocol (both IPv4 IPv6) many related technologies. * Written developers, operators, managers, designed be used both an overview reference. * Discusses major concepts traffic engineering, providing detailed looks MPLS GMPLS control IP non-IP traffic. * Covers governing routing transport, managing switches, components, whole, along with higher-level application protocols. * Offers thoughtful guidance on choosing between protocols, selecting features within protocol, other service- performance-related decisions.
