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. _ The new MSN 8: advanced junk mail protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=66849&t=66849 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

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.
