Very good book if you are just starting out in IT field and want a all-in-one book to cover all the basics in IT。 Wish i had this book when i started in IT service desk。 Although it is called "Networking", but networking only takes i would say 50-60% of this book, rest is other IT related and general stuff。 Very good book if you are just starting out in IT field and want a all-in-one book to cover all the basics in IT。 Wish i had this book when i started in IT service desk。 Although it is called "Networking", but networking only takes i would say 50-60% of this book, rest is other IT related and general stuff。 。。。more

Quite basic, but engaging, not dry。NotesCircuit-level gateway: manages connections between clients and servers based on TCP/IP addresses and port numbers; after connection is established, gateway doesn’t interfere with packet flow。Application gateway: firewall that's more intelligent than a packet-filtering firewall, stateful packet inspection firewall, or circuit-level gateway firewall; knows details about applications that generate packets (e。g。, web application gateway is aware of details of Quite basic, but engaging, not dry。NotesCircuit-level gateway: manages connections between clients and servers based on TCP/IP addresses and port numbers; after connection is established, gateway doesn’t interfere with packet flow。Application gateway: firewall that's more intelligent than a packet-filtering firewall, stateful packet inspection firewall, or circuit-level gateway firewall; knows details about applications that generate packets (e。g。, web application gateway is aware of details of HTTP packets); also works as proxy server。 。。。more

I liked this!I have been learning more-and-more about networking, cybersecurity, and system administration。 This was a good book on networking, and I got quite a bit out of it。 As a CCNA, I already know a lot of this though。 3。9/5

You will read everything you need to know about networks to say wow and even more up to the point when you say okay this is cool but why should I care?This happens when you are new to the topic and you face too much details than you really need。If you're a programmer or a network habits/specialist, then this book will give you the big picture and enough details to get up and running on your own field。I'm not aware of other network books, but I'm giving this a 4 start because of some over simplif You will read everything you need to know about networks to say wow and even more up to the point when you say okay this is cool but why should I care?This happens when you are new to the topic and you face too much details than you really need。If you're a programmer or a network habits/specialist, then this book will give you the big picture and enough details to get up and running on your own field。I'm not aware of other network books, but I'm giving this a 4 start because of some over simplification when the topic doesn't need one, and some over explanation when brevity was required。 。。。more

Not really for Dummies I read the complete book but I'm not sure I am much ahead。Good for reference。 The part for Linux could be a seperate book。 A part on networking copiers would have been nice。 Not really for Dummies I read the complete book but I'm not sure I am much ahead。Good for reference。 The part for Linux could be a seperate book。 A part on networking copiers would have been nice。 。。。more

I would recommend this book to anyone interested in the fundamentals of networking and/or to an individual who is responsible for network management。It is an expansive work discussing the multiple applications and programs that one might encounter or utilize in their own network。 The concepts discussed are in many instances quite basic。 But every section appears to include tidbits that are valuable and often not considered or forgotten over a period of time。 There are several examples with scree I would recommend this book to anyone interested in the fundamentals of networking and/or to an individual who is responsible for network management。It is an expansive work discussing the multiple applications and programs that one might encounter or utilize in their own network。 The concepts discussed are in many instances quite basic。 But every section appears to include tidbits that are valuable and often not considered or forgotten over a period of time。 There are several examples with screenshots directing the reader through a step-by-step installment。 I have never found these to be particularly useful in that in most cases the screen shot shown in the book or u-tube is not the screen shot I pull up。 However, the author provides useful suggestions that on might use in setting up the application。 。。。more

Nice intro to networking。 Topics are geared to Windoz, not to much on unix/Linux os。

The first pages of this book cautioned not to read it all the way through, but here's the thing: I don't like being told what to do。 So, this behemoth is the only book I've read this entire month, but I've sure read it! And did actually learn a lot, and know what topics I want to explore further in other books as well。 The first pages of this book cautioned not to read it all the way through, but here's the thing: I don't like being told what to do。 So, this behemoth is the only book I've read this entire month, but I've sure read it!

The early modules provide a solid overview of the theoretical background behind topics, but the later ones are a mixed bag。 The module on cloud computing is very weak--someone reading a book on networking doesn't really need to be introduced to Dropbox as a service, and there's no discussion of *aaS。 The module on Linux feels tacked on and forced, as the author is obviously writing to a Windows-userland audience, but felt compelled to at least give a passing mention of Apache。 If you are in Wind The early modules provide a solid overview of the theoretical background behind topics, but the later ones are a mixed bag。 The module on cloud computing is very weak--someone reading a book on networking doesn't really need to be introduced to Dropbox as a service, and there's no discussion of *aaS。 The module on Linux feels tacked on and forced, as the author is obviously writing to a Windows-userland audience, but felt compelled to at least give a passing mention of Apache。 If you are in Windows userland, there are some strong modules and excellent content here for that; but as that's not me, I found those significant portions of the book to be superfluous for my purposes。Still, the early modules do provide an excellent general-knowledge and theoretical background of networking principles for someone, like me, who's new to them。 。。。more
