Stop waiting for the network team!If basic TCP/IP was hard, network administrators couldn’t do it. Servers give sysadmins a incredible visibility into the network—once they know how to unlock it. Most sysadmins don’t need to understand window scaling, or the differences between IPv4 and IPv6 echo requests, or other intricacies of the TCP/IP protocols. You need only enough to deploy your own applications and get easy support from the network team.This book teaches you:•How modern networks really work•The essentials of TCP/IP•The next generation protocol, IPv6•The right tools to diagnose network problems, and how to use them•Troubleshooting everything from the physical wire to DNS•How to see the traffic you send and receive•Connectivity testing•How to communicate with your network team to quickly resolve problemsA systems administrator doesn’t need to know the innards of TCP/IP, but knowing enough to diagnose your own network issues transforms a good sysadmin into a great one.

It is explained in a way that I was able to understand perfectly as a system administrator. There are many things I do in my job that did for years without really thinking de details behind those things. But, from the very first chapters it really helped me connect the dots

Another charming work with wisdom for professionals, aspirants, and adventurers alike. The print quality is very good and the indexed content is immensely useful. Michael W Lucas excels at explaining advanced technology in a style that is immediately accessible.

Good networking overview. Everything is simply explained and easy to understand. It's well written and short as technical books/manuals go. Five stars for sure.

I've worked as a sys admin on and off for close to 20 years. This was a great book I'd recommend it for people new to the job, but also for people like me as a review and refresher. Lucas continues to produce great reference materials.

I didn't think I could learn anything after two decades as a developer working closely with a lot of networking techI was wrong! And I was wrong again and again. There's a lot of interesting stuff to find here. I would absolutely buy another Lucas book, and I will.
