About this title

From the Back Cover:

Internet Architecture: An Introduction to IP Protocols is an expert, application-focused guide to the key Internet protocols networking professionals need to master.

World-renowned communications consultant Uyless Black begins with a detailed overview of how the Internet works and how it has evolved, reviewing key elements such as backbones, Metropolitan Area Exchanges (MAEs), and private peering points. He presents an architectural model that shows how TCP/IP and related protocols fit together, and organizes them into key functional areas. Next, he introduces each key Internet protocol in detail including:

• LAN and link protocols
• Routing protocols with OSPF and BGP
• IP, ICMP, TCP, and UDP
• Internet addressing and naming protocols: DNS, ARP, and DHCP
• VPNs and remote access: L2TP, IPSec, and more
• Network management: SNMP, RMON, and MIBs

Black concludes with an expert introduction to the protocols underlying the emerging multiservice Internet, including Voice over IP (VoIP), as well as Quality of Service (QoS) solutions such as MPLS and DiffServ. For networking professionals, this is the most relevant, authoritative guide to Internet protocols available: today's and tomorrow's.
