Internet Architecture: Protocols and Applications is an expert, application-oriented introduction to every Internet protocol networking professionals need to know about. Respected communications consultant Uyless Black begins with a detailed overview of how the Internet works, and how it has evolved, reviewing key elements such as backbones, metropolitan area exchanges, and private peering points. Black presents an architectural model that shows how TCP/IP and related protocols fit together; then introduces each protocol, in detail. Coverage includes: LANs and link protocols; addresses, names, DNS, ARP, and DHCP; IP and ICMP; TCP and UDP; PPP, L2TP, and more. Black also presents extensive coverage of VPNs and security, including IPSec; as well as network management via SNMP, RMON and MIBs. Finally, the book previews the emerging multiservice Internet, which will incorporate advanced protocols such as Voice over IP (VoIP), as well as QoS initiatives like Multiprotocol Label Switching and DiffServ.
