This book describes the TCP/IP protocol suite, but from a different perspective than other texts on TCP/IP Instead of just describing the protocols and what they do, we''ll use a popular diagnoshc tool to watch the protocols in action. Seeing how the protocols operate in varying circumstances provides a greater understanding of how they work and why certain design decisions were made. It also provides a look into the implementation of the protocols, without having to wade through thousands of lines of source code.
