Good textbook

I'm using this as a textbook for my Network Technologies classes for MS IT and MS IM graduate students. I also found this relevant to MBA students as I teach another class at the Graduate School of Business entitled, Network Technology Management. The structure of the topics is excellent; however I normally postpone discussing the Internetwork Layers (TCP/IP, routing, etc.) only after the discussion on the Internet. Students relate better with the more technical stuff on routing and TCP/IP that way.
