DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Technical specialists and network managers explain how to design, build, and operate a large global Internet Protocol network, and overview many of the transport and access components. After discussing carrier-scale networks and IP networks in general, they look at scaling issues, peering with other networks, and other practical building and maintaining issues; the connections between the points of presence of an Internet provider and their customers; and some less technical aspects of operations. Issues of network management are discussed throughout as appropriate. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
