Customer Reviews & Comments
This review is from: Computer Networks and Internets, with Internet Applications (3rd Edition) (Hardcover)
I had to use this book for a networking class at my university. It presents a nice overview and goes a little in depth into various aspects of networking. It covers networking from the ground up, explaining each layer of the OSI and the components that compose each layer. I would recommend it to a beginner or amateur to networking.
