Understanding TCP/IP. A clear and comprehensive guide to TCP/IP protocols

Libor Dost?É?íÂ!°lek, Alena Kabelov?É?íÂ!°, CP Books a.s.

Ebook
This book covers in detail the Open System Interconnection (OSI) reference model and the TCP/IP protocols that operate that different layers. Its coverage includes various application protocols. The authors explain in an easy-to-read style networking concepts and protocols, with examples that make the book a practical guide in addition to its coverage of theory.
