4th paragraph titled, "The OSI and DOD Reference Models" |
At the bottom of page 3 the ISO is listed as the International Standard
Organization.
The ISO is actually called the International Organization for
Standardization. This is a very common mistake and numerous books make this
mistake. See the below URL for more information:

Figure 1-8 |
In Figure 1-8 on page 12 the MAC address for the router (in step 2) is
missing a dash (hyphen) between OC and 12.

Figure 1-8 (Step 2) |
In Figure 1-8 in step 2 of the diagram the router's MAC address should be
listed as 00-20-0C-12-34-56.
Or, the MAC address listed in Figure 1-8 step 3 should be listed as
00-00-00-12-34-56.

Figure 1-8 |
I took a look at the rest of Figure 1-8 on page 12 and really think there
are numerous serious technical mistakes that need to be addressed.
For example, Why is Computer X's IP address 192.168.0.28 when that computer
is on the 10.0.0.1 segment?
Why is Step 5 asking for the MAC address for the IP address of 10.0.0.68?
There is no computer in Figure 1-8 with the IP address of 10.0.0.68.
However, Computer Y's IP address is 10.0.0.28.
Why is Computer X in Step 6 responding to the router's ARP request for the
IP address of 10.0.0.68?
Assuming that Computer Y should have an IP address of 10.0.0.68 shouldn't
the arrow in Step 8 be pointing from Computer Y's segment to the router
rather than from the router to Computer Y's segment?

Figure 1-9 |
In my book Figure 1-9 on page 13 looks to have the formatting boxes removed
from the bit values of 128 and 64.
Is this supposed to be this way or is this a simple formatting error?

4th paragraph |
{SAFARI Section 1.3.3 IP Subnetting; (snode=10)}
Shouldn't this paragraph:
We used 5 bits for the subnet portion. The fifth bit value from the right is 8.
Therefore the subnet addresses are all multiples of 8: the first subnet is
201.222.5.8, the next is 201.222.5.16, etc.
Be this instead:
We used 5 bits for the subnet portion. The fifth bit value from the right is 8.
Therefore the subnet addresses are all multiples of 8: the first subnet is
201.222.5.0, the next is 201.222.5.8, etc.

5th paragraph; The last sentence reads |
The range ends with the next subnet address minus 2
I believe it should read:
The range ends with the next subnet address minus 1

Example 2-1; Example BOOTP Database File (continued) |
Of the 3 devicenames, 2 are the same. Is that legal? Does that mean the host
has 2 NICs? Or was it a typo?

the last paragraph |
If the bit is 1,the message should be send as broadcast. If the bit is 0, the message
should be sent as a unicast.
I think the bit is reversed as you can see in Fig 2-4, the flags bit is 0x0000-
broadcast.
