Books for Introduction to networking [7:66849]
Hi,
Is there any good book for non-technical manager about intro to networking
(or network 101)?
I have tried to search around and come across two books.
Cisco Networking Academy Program IT Essentials II: Network Operating Systems
Companion Guide
http://www.ciscopress.com/isapi/st~{83B5FF0E-06C7-4A59-B7F4-61B7A6B1566C}/session_id~{8F92035A-5279-4756-AE28-2676C8AB5BF8}/product_id~{66B1B7AF-7587-4FD1-8D82-FDB7976BD71F}/catalog/product.asp
Internet Architecture: An Introduction to IP Protocols
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0130199060/qid=1049468836/sr=1-9/ref=sr_1_9/002-1652755-1832040?v=glance&s=books
The "Internetwork Technology Handbook" that is too cisco oriented and also
one step too far.
What I am looking for is some books that talks about OSI 7 layers, what
router is for, what switches is for and so on
Thanks in advance for any suggestion.

I'm not joking when I suggest the following book: Networking for Dummies.
That is an excellent book for beginners. It gets into enough depth to make
it understandable but it doesn't swamp you with too much detail initially.
For a absolute beginner I'd recommend something like that over just about
any other book.
HTH,
John
