Read the full review for this book.
Sidnie Feit's TCP/IP Architecture, Protocols and Implementation with IPv6 and IP Security is a comprehensive one-volume introduction to TCP/IP networking that is worthy of being a professional's reference of first resort. It is broad, refined, and accurate. This is easily one of the best networking books of the decade.
In a little over 900 pages, TCP/IP conducts a brisk inspection of most nooks and crannies of the TCP/IP edifice. Everything legal and ethical in TCP/IP is covered, and quite a bit that is not. Let the savvy sysadmin tighten down the hatches!
Feit's prose is a model of technical writing. Every sentence states a fact. Every fact is germane to the discussion, and proceeds smoothly from what came before. The author has as close to an exhaustive knowledge of the subject as could be desired by the most exigent reader, and is expert at demonstrating how disparate elements fit together. By the standards of contemporary American computer engineering literature, this book is above criticism. --Jack Woehr, Dr. Dobb's Journal
Book Description
TCP/IP by Sidnie Feit has sold over 20,000 copies in its previous two editions. We want to capitalize on their success with an updated paperback edition called "The Signature Edition." The Signature Series is reserved for our top selling communications authors that have established themselves as the authorities in computer communications. TCP/IP Signature Edition is completely updated and expanded from the second edition to provide the best available guidance on planning for, configuring, using, operating, and maintaining a TCP/IP network and associated services. It now includes Web applications, the new IP security framework, LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol), routing issues, RSVP, TCP Extensions, IMPA, MINE, and features of the updated World Wide Web protocol.
Customer Reviews & Comments
Just a short note to express my appreciation for this wonderful book. I have attempted several times to read books on this protocol, but have never been able to return to them. Until now! The author has taken the very intelligent approach of weaving protocol structure, protocol mechanics and protocol behavior into an integrated description that is useful to the network engineer as well as to the programmer. All features of the protocols are explained in clear unambigous language. The reasons for each protocol construct are clearly explained. The book is entirely free of typos (to the best of my knowledge), and is very well produced with excellent diagrams and generous margins.
