TCP/IP Architecture, Design, and Implementation in Linux

Engels | Hardcover | 9780470147733 | 30 december 2008 | 800 pagina's

Provides thorough knowledge of Linux TCP/IP stack and kernel framework for its network stack Blends concepts and implementation under one cover. Corporations have widely accepted Linux as the base OS for their networking products Authors gradually explain the different aspects of socket programming Includes nearly 250 illustrations.

The only single-source reference on the concept and implementation of TCP/IP in Linux

As open source software becomes a trusted part of business and research systems, it's no wonder that a combination of the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and the Linux operating system is becoming more common. TCP/IP's prevalence allows easy communication among computers using various operating systems, whether Windows, Mac OS, Linux, or Unix. And Linux—because it is open source and thus modifiable—has become a frequent choice for developers who want a customizable operating system on which to build their applications.

This book describes the design and implementation of TCP/IP in Linux, from simple client-server applications to more complex executions. Topical coverage includes:

• Basic socket concepts and implementations

• The Linux implementation of network packets

• TCP read/write

• TCP algorithms for data transmission and congestion control

• TCP timers

• IP layer and routing tables implementation

• IP forwarding and quality of service implementation

• Netfilter hooks for the stacks

• Network Soft IRQ

• How to debug a TCP/IP stack

All topics are discussed in a concise, step-by-step manner and the book is complemented with helpful illustrations to give readers a better understanding of the subject. TCP/IP Architecture, Design, and Implementation in Linux is an indispensable resource for embedded-network product developers, network security product developers, IT network architects, researchers, and graduate students.
