Linux Network Administrators Guide

The idea of networking is probably as old as telecommunications itself. Consider people living in the Stone Age, when drums may have been used to transmit messages between individuals. Suppose caveman A wants to invite caveman B over for a game of hurling rocks at each other, but they live too far apart for B to hear A banging his drum. What are A's options? He could 1) walk over to B's place, 2) get a bigger drum, or 3) ask C, who lives halfway between them, to forward the message. The last option is called networking.

ADSL Bandwidth Management

This document describes how to configure a Linux router to more effectively manage outbound traffic on an ADSL modem or other device with similar bandwidth properties (cable modem, ISDN, etc). Emphasis is placed on lowering the latency for interactive traffic even when the upstream and/or downstream bandwidth is fully saturated.

High-Performance Networking Unleashed

The past decade has been witness to the radical evolution of data networks from their humble origins to their current forms. The original Local Area Networks (LANs), were nothing more than coaxial cabling, strung from terminal servers to desktop terminals whose users were treated to monochromatic text displayed on low-resolution cathode ray tubes (CRTs).

Managing Multivendor Networks

ultivendor networks and a plate of liver and onions have a lot in common: they are both undeniably real; they both provide sustenance; and both of them are repulsive to a lot of people.

Running a Perfect Intranet

Intranet technology is used in many different ways. It can be used to set up a central document repository or workgroup server. It can be used to integrate with existing databases, either by writing custom software or using commercial applications. Most database vendors currently have or are working on WWW interfaces to their products.

Teach Yourself TCP/IP in 14 Days

This book is intended for beginning through intermediate users and covers all the protocols involved in TCP/IP. Each protocol is examined in a fair level of detail to show how it works and how it interacts with the other protocols in the TCP/IP family.

Wireless

Wireless technology for Internet access is rapidly spreading throughout the world. It will not be long until every corner of the globe is connected to the Internet via Wi-Fi. Portable laptop computers are produced, manufactured and released in a steady stream with upgraded 802.11 a/b/n connectivity chipsets, enabling technical and non-technical users to connect to the Internet via speedy wireless connections. Bluetooth technology allows a wireless protocol for connectivity and is specifically designed for electronic applications less than 30 feet in distance from the host site.
