Summary: Ultimate Subnetting
Review: This book is amazing. I purchased it to get a firm grasp on subnetting, and it did for me what no other resource was able to do. The informative chapters followed by real world exercises really made me understand the underlying reasons as to why sunbetting was necessary and how it could be applied in real world scenerios. I only gave this book a 4 because at some points the writing does get a bit wordy, reading more like a technical manual. But other than that, this book is a keeper!

Summary: What every Administrator Should know about IP
Review: This book is what is says Fundamental. IF you work with IP or want to work with IP you should know what is in this book. I found the chapter on subnetting wonderfully enlightening. This book answered many of my questions I had about IP. I highly recommend this book.

Summary: Just what the title says...
Review: This book will definately show you everything you need to know about IP. It has been a truly valuable resource. If you are new to IP and Routing, however, you may want to read something a little more basic first. Without a basic understanding of IP concepts, this book may seem a little too complex. Excellent book to keep on the shelf though...you'll go back to it again and again.

Summary: Excellent Explanation Of VLSMs
Review: This is a tremendous book for IP newbies and more experienced users alike. I bought the book primarily because I had not been able to find a comprehensive and understandable explanation of VLSMs. The chapter in this book dealing with that subject itself is worth the purchase price. Clearly explained with text, examples, and exercises, this book took a complicated subject and made it quite easy to understand. The rest of the book is just as good. My compliments to the author for an excellent job.

Summary: Very good explanation of concepts. however poor editing
Review: This otherwise excellent book is marred and riddled by moderate to serious typos. At times the typos almost makes the text incomprehensible.If the reader is ready to put in the extra effort and patience to understand these troubled portions of the book, then what he gets is surely worth all the trouble. The book is one of the best book on IP that I have ever read. It explains in very great details and with amazing simplicity the most cryptic details about CIDR, VLSM and other highly complex topics. The Chapters are arranged very logically and it almost feels like a continous text. I have decided to give the book 4 stars although it deserves more than 5 stars. I would really advise the publishers to spend some more time on a book to ensure its correctness, before the send the book out to the press. One last think which I feel is that this book does assumes certain previous knowledge of concepts like ARP and other basic concepts of IP, hence this book should be much more fun and usefull after a reading a primary book on TCP/IP like Douglas Comer or W.R. Stevens.
