Networking

The only book in networking which combines theory and practice Excelent for self-instruction.No experience in networking is required to master this text.

College-level computer libraries strong in topics of computer networking and IT configuration need the 2nd updated edition of NETWORKING. It provides basic knowledge of computer networks up to advanced concepts in Ethernet networks and routers, covering everything from theory to installation and protection issues. Net-challenge software provides a simulated, hands-on experience in such exercises, and the protocol analyzer software included with the text uses demos to reinforce written examples. A winning classroom text indeed. Diane C. Donovan California Bookwatch

I had the priviledge of taking a class from the author of this book. It's the most comprehensive look at networking a beginner could ever hope to find. If you want to learn a lot about networking and cut a lot of the fat, this book is for you.
