Book Description
The only reference and tutorial on the market covering all the major data link protocols in use in industry. (Data link protocols (DLPs) manage the flow of data across a communications path and ensure that this traffic arrives error-free at the receiving machine.) Examines relative merit and pros/cons of each. Covers both synchronous and asynchronous protocols as well as WAN and LAN links. Protocols covered include: LAPD, LAPB, LEEE LAN Link Protocols, LAPM, Frame Relay, Internet Link Protocols, SDLC as well as wireless link protocols. The value of these protocols for their underlying network technologies is examined; for example the relationship of LAPD to ISDN nets or LAPB to X.25 nets. For programmers, engineers, project managers responsible for designing, installing, and maintaining communication systems using data link protocols.

Bible on Data Link protocols
This book is considered the "Bible" of data link protocols. Here you will find ASYNC (XMODEM, etc), HDLC/SDLC, BiSYNC, LAP/B, LAP/M, Signal System 7 (SS7), ieee 802.x, LLC, described in detail. Complete discussions of asynchronous and synchronous link layer controls and error correction are discussed in detail. This is a must have for the data communications professionals library. I don't even loan this book out...
