Product Description
With the arrival of the new Internet protocols, TCP/IP and the Internet itself are undergoing some of the most drastic changes in their history. IPng and the TCP/IP Protocols gives computer and software engineers a complete description of the IPng or next generation Internet protocols, as well as the technical information key to its successful implementation. Detailed coverage begins with the latest network technologies, including Fast Ethernet, ISDN, and ATM LAN Emulation. The text continues with a thorough description of IPv6 and the new ICMP, as well as comprehensive and up-to-date coverage of transport, routing, configuration, and name service protocols. This book also contains the first detailed description of TCP/IP's real-time support, with chapters on RTP and RSVP. In addition, this invaluable reference previews future applications such as audio and video conferencing over the Internet, and it outlines the steps in a successful transition to IPng.

Thomas provides a complete description of the next generation of the Internet Protocols for computer and software engineers. Detailed coverage begins with discussion of Fast Ethernet, ISDN, and ATM LAN Emulation. The rest of the book is packed with thorough descriptions of IPv6, the new ICMP, up-to-date coverage of transport, routing, configuration, and name service protocols. Of special note are chapters on TCP/IP real-time support essential to multimedia networking for audio and video, such as RTP and RSVP. Recommended reading for informed networking!

 A comprehensive and well written text on IPng October 29, 1997
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
What can you say a classic book on IPng. The text is very comprehensive covering the basics of IP networking through to the more obtruse concepts behind the Next Generation IP protocols. The text is incredibly well written and mind blowingly easy to understand, whilst holding the interest of all readers. My Fiancee was reading over my shoulder, whilst I was sitting on the plane and consdiering she has little knowledge about networking picked up a lot from the few pages she read. This is a must for anyone interested in how the internet will survive the explosion of new systems hitting it and how the protocols that let us all communicate over it work.
