solid

This is a good solid guide to TCP/IP, unlike many books which really only scratch the surface. By no means complete, but still very useful (and a good price)

This book is just short of the right thing.

If networking is what you are looking to make a career out of, then you need to have a great understanding of TCP/IP and the entire protocol suite. You also need to have a reference manual that will provide this information to you. This book is just short of the right book. One thing I found was some of the information was a little short of complete and a few typo errors in the book as well. I also found that the book states the level to be intermediate to advanced and I think it is more of the beginner to intermediate. I found that the book does give a good overall explanation of TCP/IP and that there were some topics like firewalls that cover only about 9 pages and I think the information could have been expanded. Overall the book does provide good information for the A+, Net+, CCNA and other first level exam certifications. I can also say that this book was great for a TCP/IP seminar I recently gave, but still some improvements are need to make this the go to manual.

Features and complexities of the TCP/IP protocol suite

The book is designed for easy reference and incorporates step-by-step guidelines and configuration examples to enhance the reader's learning experience. Our expert authors walk through the fundamentals of TCP/IP before moving on to more challenging topics including naming and addressing, IPv6, routing, implementation, TCP/IP applications, and TCP/IP network administration. TCP/IP Unleashed has been revised to include the latest implementation information and real-world experiences, including configuring TCP/IP for Linux and Windows 2000 systems. User Level: Intermediate - Advanced, 1000 pages.

Great overview

Non-technical look at TCP/IP that is great. I had a Windows and Linux network running in less thgan a day and I even know what's going on. Removed a lot of the technobable I see in other TCP/IP books. This book deserves a second edition.

My one stop shop for anything on TCP/IP

This book covers the basics of TCP/IP as well as many related internet services, how they interact, and how to set them up on different operating system. I keep taking this of the shelf again and again more than a year after I bought it. A must have reference guide for anyone doing a little more TCP/IP than what comes on the ISP's setup disk.
