Introduction to Networking Technologies


Introduction to Networking Technologies

Redbooks logo An IBM Redbooks publication


Abstract

There are many different computing and networking technologies -- some
available today, some just now emerging, some well-proven, some quite
experimental. Understanding the computing dilemma more completely
involves recognizing technologies; especially since a single
technology by itself seldom suffices, and instead, multiple
technologies are usually necessary.
This document describes a sampling of technologies of various types,
by using a tutorial approach. It compares the technologies available
in the three major technology areas: application support, transport
networks, and subnetworking. In addition, the applicability of these
technologies within a particular situation is illustrated using a set
of typical customer situations.
This document can be used by consultants and system designers to
better understand, from a business and technical perspective, the
options available to solve customers' networking problems.

TCP/IP Tutorial and Technical Overview:

Abstract

With continual advances in hardware and TCP/IP networking capabilities, this very popular book deserves an update.
The TCP/IP protocol suite has become the de facto standard for computer communications in today's networked world.
The ubiquitous implementation of a specific networking standard has led to an incredible dependence on the applications enabled by it. Today, we use the TCP/IP protocols and the Internet not only for entertainment and information, but to conduct our business by performing transactions, buying and selling products, and delivering services to customers. We are continually extending the set of applications that leverage TCP/IP, thereby driving the need for further infrastructure support.
It is our hope that both the novice and the expert will find useful information in this publication.
