Book Info:
As the Internet continues to expand its reach, more and more users, administrators, and programmers need to learn about TCP/IP the core standard behind the Internet, and the dominant protocol for networks throughout the world.

Sams Teach Yourself TCP/IP in 24 Hours provides a clear and concise introduction to TCP/IP. It is accessible enough for non-technical readers, yet specific enough for technical readers who are looking for a solid foundation in TCP/IP.

This edition adds coverage of recent developments that affect TCP/IP. New topics added include: wireless networking, spam control, broadband, and peer-to-peer networking technologies

It is not exaggerating to say that networking is the core of contemporary computing. Hardware vendors are constantly improving the devices that make networking easier. The complex wiring of old networks are gradually being replaced by a cleaner wireless environment. Software vendors are also striving to make networking more effortless. Java’s success is due in part to its built-in networking capability. Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is the main collection of protocols understood by all computers on all platform, including the Internet. This book provides a concise introduction to this important protocol suite and should be informative for hardware support professionals as well as software developers.

As outlined in the book, TCP/IP is a collection of complicated protocols with different implementations from several vendors. The concept of subnetting and routing is well presented. The new IPv6 protocol is also discussed. In addition, the author discusses protocols that are built on top of TCP/IP, such as FTP, Remote Access, SMTP and HTML. Further, it touches on what hackers want out of the protocols and the TCP/IP security issues. The last Hour of the book is based on a hypothetical networking guy coming to his new job. Overall, the book follows a consistent logic that is developed chapter by chapter.
