Audience

This book is primarily intended for people who design, build, manage, or support computer networks using Internet-based protocols and services. While this book may be useful to power users and programmers, it is intended mostly to be used as a reference for people who live and breathe TCP/IP.

This book is optimized for people who already have a basic understanding of computer networks and how they work, and who may already know a little bit about how TCP/IP works, but who also want to know a lot more on the subject. If you don’t know how to assign IP addresses to your computer, then you shouldn’t be looking for help here. Instead, see TCP/IP Network Administration by Craig Hunt or Windows NT TCP/IP Network Administration by Craig Hunt and Robert Bruce Thompson (both books are published by O’Reilly & Associates, Inc.). However, if you want to know more about IP’s Time-To-Live or Type-of-Service parameters and how they can affect your network, then this is the book for you.

Also, it is important to note that this book is not meant as a reference for any specific implementations or applications. While I may mention a specific implementation, it is for illustration purposes only, and should not be used instead of the official product documentation.
