another must read of network engineers

Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2000

Halabi had no doubt raised the bar for the books to come on internet architecture and so far no one has come close with a book like this. Written by the best in the business today.
I picked it up basically for BGP and it covers all the details of BGP with real world applications. Icky topics like Synchronization, IGP-BGP interaction etc are explained with amazing clarity with diagrams and later on in chapter 10-11 you can see the actual IOS config. I learned a lot from Tuning BGP capabilities chapter which also covers route filtering and route-maps.
Apart from BGP, the entire book is full of useful information. If you have a job in which you have to deal with routing protocols, be it design, implementation, testing, administration you ought to read this book, if nothing else, just for the heck of it.

Excellent guide to unfold the mysteries of BGP

Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2006

Internet Routing Architectures is considered the BGP4 handbook and rightfully so. I found the overall composition easy to read. Even though the book is aimed at varying levels of expertise, it does not assume any level of knowledge in TCP/IP or routing. It explains all the concepts, from the simplest one right up to the most demanding, in a fluent way. The book works hard not to withhold protocol details and design-oriented information, while at the same time realizing that building general understanding comes first. An in depth look at BGP is supplied here from the theory aspect, if you need actual configurations and commands I suggest also:

Cisco BGP-4 Command and Configuration Handbook : CCIE Professional Development

Excellent book for BGP routing architectures

Reviewed in the United States on January 10, 2001

I am the architect of a leading MPLS VPN service which uses BGPv4 with MPLS extensions. I constantly refer back to this book for standard BGP scenarios (it has no MPLS VPN info). I have recommended this book to all our techincal support people and our customers for designing BGP peering networks.
The book is well written, well organized and easy to follow. It has great breath of BGP applications. It is a tremendous help for those designing AS peering networks.
It gives a brief overview of internet routing then dives into BGP. After the BGP protocol description, the next part of the book has applications geared around scenarios/case studies. The last part is specific Cisco IOS configurations for the scenarios in the previous part. The scenarios cover, to list a few: load balancing, preference routing (primary/backup), route redistribution, default routes, route summarization, route reflectors and confederations (scaling), damping (stability), policy control (filtering/manipulating routes, attributes and community values).
Note that it is not a BGP specification nor a Cisco IOS reference. A better title would be "BGP Applications".

Everything about BGP. And easy!

Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2000

The perfect book. It covers only one topic - BGP, but in great details. It explains a lot of possible architectures, relations to IGP protocols, gives a lot of configuration examples - just everything you need to know about BGP. And the most important issue that it's very easy to understand, even the most complex topics. BGP was always something vougue to me, but now it's one of the clearest topics. Very, very good book!

Still one of the greatest books on Internet Routing. Not a reference or manual of any kind. Not for someone who is looking to understand how to configure a cisco for a simple WAN or internal network. This book really emphasizes routing algorithms and in particular BGP.

A must read for the internetwork engineer!

Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 1997

This is the definitive routing reference for the network engineer. It is one of the better written technical reference books for the experienced to expert technician working with internetworking issues. This books covers complex routing protocols such as OSPF and BGP4 in such a way that novices are not left behind, while more advanced readers don't feel they are being "talked down to".

Excellent, well stuctured

Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 1998

A very well structured book on routing. Builds up subject knowledge step at a time. The only shortcoming is that some terms are not defined or explained the first time they are used but left for later discussion. List on inside of covers - excellent idea and quick guide to the slow to learn the new lingo.
