If you want to learn about

- swicthing concept (not especially Cisco) the very best and very accurate
book I've ever read it: Rich Seifert, The Swicth Book,
- Ethernet: Charles E. Spurgeon, Ethernet, The Definitive Guide.

Dear AA,

It's very important to get a good grounding in networking concepts while
studying for Cisco certifications. You can actually attain some of the
certifications without getting a good grounding ;-) but that's not
advisable.

I have a list of books on my Web site. They are all excellent books.

Someone mentioned Tannenbaum's book. It's good, but quite theoretical, with
lots of math. It even has Fourier analysis in it.  ;-) I'm looking at an
older edition. It may be different in the latest edition.

To learn, TCP/IP, the must-have books are by Comer and W.R. Stevens. Comer
also has a very good basic networking book called Computer Networks and
Internets. To learn internetworking, especially bridging and routing, the
must have book is by Radia Perlman, as someone mentioned. And to learn how
protocols really work, the must have book is by Oppenheimer and Bardwell.
;-)

Anyway, my list is here:

Good luck! I applaud your desire to learn how networks really work.
