Product Description

TCP/IP Illustrated, an ongoing series covering the many facets of TCP/IP, brings a highly-effective visual approach to learning about this networking protocol suite.

TCP/IP Illustrated, Volume 2 contains a thorough explanation of how TCP/IP protocols are implemented. There isn't a more practical or up-to-date bookothis volume is the only one to cover the de facto standard implementation from the 4.4BSD-Lite release, the foundation for TCP/IP implementations run daily on hundreds of thousands of systems worldwide.

Combining 500 illustrations with 15,000 lines of real, working code, TCP/IP Illustrated, Volume 2 uses a teach-by-example approach to help you master TCP/IP implementation. You will learn about such topics as the relationship between the sockets API and the protocol suite, and the differences between a host implementation and a router. In addition, the book covers the newest features of the 4.4BSD-Lite release, including multicasting, long fat pipe support, window scale, timestamp options, and protection against wrapped sequence numbers, and many other topics.

Comprehensive in scope, based on a working standard, and thoroughly illustrated, this book is an indispensable resource for anyone working with TCP/IP.

From the Publisher

A teach by example approach to TCP/IP
Bestselling author W. Richard Stevens teams up with long-time colleague and TCP/IP expert Gary Wright in TCP/IP Illustrated, Volume 2. Unlike other books on the subject, TCP/IP Illustrated, Volume 2 presents the de facto standard implementation of TCP/IP from the 4.4 BSD release. The authors use a teach-by-example approach that combines hundreds of pictures and descriptions of all data structures and algorithms with 15,000 lines of code to help readers master the TCP/IP protocol suite. The book's timely coverage includes the newest TCP/IP features: multicasting, TCP's window scale and timestamp options, and protection against wrapped sequence numbers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Solid reference, 9 Jun 2001

By A Customer

This book is a solid reference for anyone working in computer networks, especially those involved in Internet security. Not the kind of thing you read cover to cover though, as the material is a little dry. Excellent and indispensable when you have to find out exactly how it works.

5.0 out of 5 stars All the detail you could ever possibly need ..., 23 April 2005

By	shelf_caribou (UK) - See all my reviews

This review is from: TCP/IP Illustrated: v. 1-3 (Addison-Wesley Professional Computing) (Hardcover)

Expensive and enormous, this foot-wide stack of books are well worth the investment if you really have that desire to know *everything* about TCP/IP.

My only complaint, and a small one at that - the "illustrations" promised by the title are really just screenshots of packet captures, but hey, whatddya expect from a book on TCP/IP :o)

1.0 out of 5 stars Oh my god, 26 May 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: TCP/IP Illustrated: v. 1-3 (Addison-Wesley Professional Computing) (Hardcover)

This is a truly terrible book. The english is appaling, it makes little or no sense. This book is only for people with a detailed knowleage of TCP/IP not any one starting the subject. Stevens has no concept of bulllet points and has vast tracks on incomprehensible techie jargon. If you are required to buy this book it would be best to investigate this subject before trying this book.
