A Kind of Network Protocol Bible.......

This book gives a detailed but consise overview of all the major protocols such as TCP/IP, Novell IPX/SPX, LLC, Apple, XNS etc. It also gives a overview of Ethernet, IEEE-802.3 and IEEE-802.5. This book is considered by many including myself to be a kind of Network Protocol Bible. It gives enough detailed information so that you can obtain a general understanding of each of the protocols examined. If a more through understanding of a particular protocol is the objective, you'll have to look elsewhere. I highly recommend this book as a Network Protocol Reference. It has been invaluable as a reference for the work that I do.

A Textbook For The Network Analyst

Optimized Engineering Corporation reviewed a large number of textbooks before selecting "Network Protocols" for use in the Technology, Engineering, and Networking Remote Education Workshop program, leading to CNX certification in network protocol analysis. Naugle has pulled together a broad base of technology and focused it on just what the title says, "network protocols". As a company that focuses on consulting and training in the protocol analysis realm, we're always being asked, "What's a good book to read to help me understand my protocol analyzer?" - this is our answer.

Clear and detailed

Clear and detailed, but a bit long-winded at times
