I would have to agree. I recently started reading it and I am on about
Chapter 6 and it is fantastic! The first few chapters cover basic things
like the Internet, CDIR, VLSM and other basics but then it delves highly
into massive BGP.
Hope this helps,
Hunter

Subject: RE: BGP - Internet Routing Architectures, Second Edition
- I am looking towards moving to another department within the company I
work for and they get REAL up close and personal with BGP. They also praise
Halabi's book. They say I should buy this book and memorize the whole thing
and life will be alot better. This is aparently, as Priscilla says, THE book
on BGP.
