Richard Stevens and Addison-Wesley published a networking classic: TCP\/IP Illustrated. The model for that book was a brilliant, unfettered approach to networking concepts that has proven itself over time to be popular with readers of beginning to intermediate networking knowledge. The Illustrated Network takes this time-honored approach and modernizes it by creating not only a much larger and more complicated network, but also by incorporating all the networking advancements that have taken place since the mid-1990s, which are many. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book takes the popular Stevens approach and modernizes it, employing 2008 equipment, operating systems, and router vendors. It presents an ?illustrated? explanation of how TCP\/IP works with consistent examples from a real, working network configuration that includes servers, routers, and workstations. Diagnostic traces allow the reader to follow the discussion with unprecedented clarity and precision. True to the title of the book, there are 330+ diagrams and screen shots, as well as topology diagrams and a unique repeating chapter opening diagram. Illustrations are also used as end-of-chapter questions. A complete and modern network was assembled to write this book, with all the material coming from real objects connected and running on the network, not assumptions. Presents a real world networking scenario the way the reader sees them in a device-agnostic world. Doesn't preach one platform or the other. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHere are ten key differences between the two: \u003cbr\u003eStevens Goralski's \u003cbr\u003eOlder operating systems (AIX, svr4, etc.) Newer OSs (XP, Linux, FreeBSD, etc.)\u003cbr\u003eTwo routers (Cisco, Telebit (obsolete)) Two routers (M-series, J-series)\u003cbr\u003eSlow Ethernet and SLIP link Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, and SONET\/SDH links (modern)\u003cbr\u003eTcpdump for traces Newer, better utility to capture traces (Ethereal, now has \u003cbr\u003ea new name!)\u003cbr\u003eNo IPSec IPSec\u003cbr\u003eNo multicast Multicast\u003cbr\u003eNo router security discussed Firewall routers detailed\u003cbr\u003eNo Web Full Web browser HTML consideration\u003cbr\u003eNo IPv6 IPv6 overview\u003cbr\u003eFew configuration details More configuration details (ie, SSH, SSL, MPLS, ATM\/FR consideration, wireless LANS, OSPF and BGP routing protocols","brand":"Morgan Kaufmann Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45309984374935,"sku":"9780123745415","price":5678.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780123745415.webp?v=1769286711","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-illustrated-network-how-tcp-ip-works-in-a-modern-network-9780123745415","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
