Acknowledgments for the Second Edition
Deb Cameron deserves a big thank you for shepherding this second edition from beginning to end. Her diligence and effort helped keep us on track. Dr. Robert Minch, professor at Boise State University, provided valuable suggestions for the second edition. Bobby Krupczak, Ph.D., once again provided feedback on the Concord SystemEDGE agent. Frank Fock was kind enough to provide comments on the Java and SNMP chapter. Max Baker provided the idea for the channel-setting algorithm presented in Chapter 11. Jim Boney graciously volunteered the use of his Cisco routers. Castle Rock Computing was gracious enough to provide us with a copy of SNMPc for the second edition of this book; special thanks go to Castle Rock's John Maytum for coordinating our access to SNMPc.
We are grateful for input from Jason Briggs, Bill Horsfall, and Jason Weiss, who reviewed new material for this second edition under a very tight schedule.

Thanks also go to my family and friends, who provided support and encouragement.
