Routing

Routin

Excellent perspective on IP networking and routing

Highly authoritative book on IP and routing protocols. Lots of sophisticated analysis and perspective on how routing works and why. The best networking book I've read. I refer to it frequently for its sections on OSPF and BGP.

If you configure routers, buy this book!

Without bogging down in vendor specifics, this book gives you a clear vision of routing protocols and when to use each. The book was easy to follow and give enough packet detail, it could be used to debug routing problems.

A lucent treatment of a complicated subject!

I read this book in preperation for the Cisco CCIE cources and found that I was well prepared. This concise text offers a complete description of every major routing protocol in use today. If you manage, troubleshoot or design networks... You Need This Book!

Excellent

Detailed and very readable analysis of the major routing protocols. I highly recommend this book for anyone who is interested in knowing more about the underlying routing protocols of the internet. This work goes beyond the usual slim treatment that is usually found in other books, which will usually mention RIP, OSPF, EGP etc. and finish with it in a paragraph.
