Internet Protocols (IP) covers many of the newer internet technologies being developed and explores how they are being implemented in the real world. The author examines numerous implementation details related to IP equipment and software. The material is organized by applications so that readers can better understand the uses of IP technology. Included are details of implementation issues as well as several state-of-the-art equipment and software. Unique features include coverage of:
-VPN's, IKE, Mobile IP, 802.11b, 802.1x, 3G, Bluetooth, Zero-Conf, SLP, AAA, iFCP, SCTP, GSM, GPRS, CDMA2000, IPv6, DNSv6, MPLS and more.
-Actual implementation strategies for routers through descriptions of Cisco 12410 GSR and Juniper M160.
-IP software stack details are also included for several popular operating systems such as Windows, BSD, VxWorks and Linux.
