Viva Books Private Limited, 2008. First edition. Paperback. New. Computer Networking Illuminated provides a practical hands-on introduction to the fundamental concepts, technologies, and applications of networking. Combining many years of professional and academic expertise, the authors have written an easy-to-understand text covering the basics of data communication, network topologies, protocols, security, routing and switching, naming and addressing, troubleshooting, and much more. Key concepts are reinforced by numerous Challenge Exercises, which allow students to gain hands-on experience with networking tools and utilities, and challenge Scenarios, which help them pull together everything they’ve learned and apply their knowledge to real-world situations they’ll encounter in the workplace. With strong pedagogy throughout–including many illustrations, step-by-step examples, and screen shots to convey important concepts–the book is ideal for undergraduate networking courses or a self-study guide. Key Features of this Edition: • Real-World Focus: The authors concentrate on best practices, applications, real-world concepts, and implementation strategies rather than raking a theoretical or overly technical approach to the subject. • Active Learning Approach: The book is strongly focused on hands-learning, and each chapter includes succinct learning objectives, challenge Question, Exercises, Scenarios, and chapter summaries, allowing readers to build and reinforce key skills quickly. • Subject Expertise: The author team has extensive teaching experience, numerous industry certifications, and significant professional experience in the world of networking, all of which contributes to the strong mix of theory and hands-on essentials evident in the book. • Comprehensive Coverage: All important topics are covered in depth, including the OSI model, TCP/IP and the related protocols, security, signaling and multiplexing, cabling and wiring, addressing, hardware, software, and administration. • Complete Supplements: instructor and student supplements include powerPointTM presentations for each chapter, copies of figures, full statements of objectives for each chapter, alternative student projects, quizzes, chapter tests, comprehensive examinations for multiple chapters, and solutions to exercises.
