Product description

Review




"Comer continues to prove himself the Baedeker of the Internet Protocols with this fine 4th edition." ― Vint Cerf, Senior Vice President, MCI WorldCom, "Father of the Internet"




"Doug's deep insight into the Internet, coupled with his talent for teaching, yields an updated classic that once again leads the pack." ― Paul Mockapetris, Inventor of the Domain Name System




"There are many TCP/IP books on the shelves today, but Doug Comer's "Internetworking with TCP/IP" is the one that comes off the shelf for accessible and authoritative answers to questions about Internet technology." ― Lyman Chapin, Chief Scientist, BBN Technologies


From the Back Cover

The TCP/IP "bible"― now completely updated to reflect all the latest technologies! Leading Internet expert Douglas Comer has updated his classic, superb introduction to TCP/IP-based internetworking that is renowned for its clarity and accessibility in explaining internetworking and routing. Discover how the basic TCP/IP technology has survived and evolved over two decades of exponential growth, and understand the TCP/IP protocols and technical advances. This edition explains emerging technologies such as Mobile IP, Virtual Private Networks, resource reservation with RSVP, and Ipv6. Comer reveals how to master TCP/IP and how the Internet works. The reader is required to have a modest background in the fundamentals of computer systems, but does not need sophisticated mathematics. As with previous editions, this edition provides an introduction to physical networks and then shows how they are combined to form an internet. It states design principles clearly, and discusses motivations and consequences.

THIS NEW EDITION OF VOLUME 1:

  • Explains how voice and video are sent over IP internets and how IP Telephony operates
  • Describes Mobile IP (a technology that allows a computer to move from one network to another without changing its IP address)
  • Discusses IP security and the security standard, IPsec
  • Revises the discussion of Ipv6 to incorporate the latest changes
  • Shows how to interconnect private intranets and the global Internet using Virtual Private Network (VPN) and Network Address Translation (NAT) technologies
  • Expands the description of IP multicasting to cover multicast routing protocols
  • Presents the Differentiated Services (DiffServe) scheme for classes of services as well at Path MTU discovery and routing for anonymous serial networks
  • Explains Random Early Discard (RED), which is now recommended for routers
  • Updates the coverage of all protocols to the latest versions, including RIP, IGMP, and SNMP

5.0 out of 5 stars Beginners look no further!
Reviewed in the United States on 11 June 2005

I knew nothing about TCP/IP. As a result, I bought a book "learn TCP/IP in 24 hours" and trashed it after I bought this book, no more 24 hour books. I had no idea what routing is and were to start looking for documents on the internet. This book is scientific and puts it all together. Each chapter lists the RFC that he relied on so you know were the stuff came from. The book is not boring; the author is excellent in explaining ideas. He covers ICMP, GGP, OSPF, EGP, DHCP, DNS, BOOTP, ARP and more. I feel I have accomplished something big by reeading this book. If you are not a beginner in routing, then look at the RFCs they are the source.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE Book on TCP/IP
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 November 2003
Verified Purchase
The definitive guide to the TCP/IP standard from a man that helped design it. This is the book that every firewall admin or network admin needs to have on his shelf - when your not quite sure if it is FW-1 or IIS that isn't handling that TCP teardown correctly - this is the book which can tell you - and the book that you can trust to be right. An indispensible reference, if not a gripping bed time story...

Best N/W book you can buy at any price. Older editions supply all the basics so unless you're a V6 person, any addition is worth having.

5.0 out of 5 stars You will understand TCP/IP from reading this book!
Reviewed in the United States on 18 May 1999
Verified Purchase
I am grateful for this book. I like to really understand things and this book makes understanding a reality. It is an exemplary model of technical writing. This is the fourth book I have read on TCP/IP and it should have been the first. Since I am a network engineer with no background in programming some of the illustrations from BSD Unix sailed over my head but there was not enough of this to make me feel that any of my time was wasted. In fact, now I want to get a solid introduction to programming so that I can follow along with the rest of the series this book begins.
