This book has lots of practical advice and is very comprehensive. Definitely a must have reference for any networking professional.

Networking is a complex subject, there are books on designing and building networks, network applications, network infrastructure and security, network hardware, internets, intranets and extranets and each books cost about $50.00. Stop wasting money on several books, for this book is all you'll need.

Under 800 pages, the books covers the world of networking from the ground up and the information in this book makes is a must have and must read for every network professional no matter what skill level or experience.

The book is more that the average look at "how to" make networks work or basic troubleshooting of network problems, the authors have carefully researched each topic and the information is detailed and complex, yet understandable.

What may be missing is a cd-rom with some networking utilities and tools, but that hardly detracts from the wealth of information presented. The book seems to be up to date, judging by the e-commerce information included. Overall, excellent a necessary reference tool.

Parnell and Null really know their stuff and this comprehensive work is something every networking admin must have on their bookshelf.
