I must join the discussion and add some of my most recent experience
here with Addison Wesley ;-) They used their external reviewer and I
must say they chose him very well. I am sure I would not be able to do
such a thorough review he did. Of course, I had quite a few peer
(voluntary) reviewers
The best source is the IPv4 standard RFC 791:
The Options provide for control functions needed or useful in some
situations but unnecessary for the most common communications. The
options include provisions for timestamps, security, and special
routingThe options may appear or not in

Very briefly: Frame Relay architecture encompasses only the lowest two
layers hence the _frame relay_ - at link layer. The bottom two layers
are just enough (even more
Keeping myself - hopefully - unbiased in this spelling discussion (not
being native English speaker) I would like to point out - FYI - that

Has anyone ever noticed that certain RFCs have a bis version ?
ie RFC 2547bis. Anyone know what that means ?
bis is Latin, IIRC, for second, and ter is third.
Bis and ter are actually used in ITU/CCITT documents for revisions.
My understanding is that bis,

This is quite interesting discussion going back into the roots of the
current networking (which is in many ways quite a useful exercise, yet
not performed often enough). I wish my father who was quite active in
these network-forming days could add his knowledgeable views here -

Hi all,
I would appreciate your insight in the following question I have
received from my student. My answer follows but I am not sure I have not
missed some important piece here.

Hi all,
Trivial yet fundamental question. I have seen ARP described as part of
the network (internet) layer so many times that I have started to
believe it belongs there (although I know well that it operates as if
the Layer 2 protocol - as per OSI RM). Now I have eventually come across

Some additional notes:
A directed broadcast to all hosts on a particular distant subnet/network
is in current IOS version implicitly not allowed (no ip
directed-broadcast) although generally this type of broadcast in
processed by router without any problem (correctly as per its routing
table).
Hi all,
The discussion on this group concerning learning resources is mostly
about self-study (books and other vast - not only Cisco - resources,
including the group postings), or instructor-led courses provided by
Cisco Training/Learning partners.
I wonder whether someone has ever taken an
technology in general. Most of the real
work of the IETF is done via mailing lists.
Is this part of a degree program.
