Essential Ethernet Standards (Internet Standards S.) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Being connected to the Internet means that technical professionals designing and running the network must keep tabs on the technical rules (standards) and updates. However, the only source for standards is a huge flat, online list of what's called RFCs (Requests for Comments) of every technical rule and improvement ever proposed. This list includes thousands of documents, many of which are in process, irrelevant, out-of-date, or obsolete. Most frustrating for network professionals is that there is no analysis, no guidance, no way to keep current for what the standards mean to what they're doing, just a list. This is one volume from the Internet Standards Series, providing analysis and guidance. Based on the author's exhaustive analysis of all the RFCs, each book in the Series provides a step-by-step action plan for integrating the right standard to the right application. This text looks at Ethernets, discussing what it is, how it works, how it differs from other popular network media and how they work within accepted Internet Protocols.
