Good book The networking handbook is my general reference along with other books. Basics are provided and some other info too. I would buy it again | ||
Networking Handbook I use this book for a reference and found it helpful. I use other books to learn how to and this one as a reference only. | ||
Great Reference I bought the book to use as a reference and found it extremely helpful. My work requires reference material and this is one of the books I have. | ||
The Networking Handbook Save your Money... Of the over 200 books I have studied on networking I must say that this book is the most disappointing of any book I have ever seen. Ed, Save a tree put your hundreds of pages of protocol analysis recordings on the CD-ROM and please give us Timely, searchable and up to date RFCs not just a copy of the RFCs form the FTP site. Give us some Value added ! | ||
I would have given it 0 stars if it was an option. This is actually the worst book on networking I have ever read. It does not live up to the claims on the cover in any way. Either the author goes into tedious detail on trivial points or he skims lightly over more important ones. In no way does this book tie together the concepts and present the design of a real network. If you want disjointed, detailed descriptions of smallest pieces of a network, this is your book. However, this book will not describe how all of the pieces of the puzzle fit together. | ||
