內容介紹
【編輯推薦】
本書第1版自1994年出版以來，深受讀者歡迎。但是時至今日，第1版的內容有些已經比較陳舊，而且沒有涉及IPv6。現在，這部世界領先的TCP/IP暢銷書已經被徹底更新，反映了新一代基於TCP/IP的網路技術。這本書仍保留了Stevens卓越的寫作風格，簡明、清晰，並且可以快速找到要點。這本書雖然超過一千頁，但是並不囉嗦，每章解釋一個協定或概念，複雜的TCP被分散到多章。我很欣賞本書的一個地方是每章都描述了已有的針對協定的攻擊方法。如果你必須自己實現這些協定，並且不希望自己和前人一樣遭受同樣的攻擊，這些信息將是無價的。這本書是日常工作中經常和TCP/IP打交道或進行網路軟體開發的人必需的，即使你的工作並不基於IP協定，這本書仍然包含很多你可以用到的好想法。”

【內容簡介】
《TCP/IP詳解》是已故網路專家、著名技術作家W. Richard Stevens的傳世之作，內容詳盡且極具權威，被譽為TCP/IP領域的不朽名著。
本書是《TCP/IP詳解》的第1卷，主要講述TCP/IP協定，結合大量實例講述TCP/IP協定族的定義原因，以及在各種不同的作業系統中的套用及工作方式。第2版在保留Stevens卓越的知識體系和寫作風格的基礎上，新加入的作者Kevin R. Fall結合其作為TCP/IP協定研究領域領導者的尖端經驗來更新本書，反映了最新的協定和最佳的實踐方法。首先，他介紹了TCP/IP的核心目標和體系結構概念，展示了它們如何能連線不同的網路和支持多個服務同時運行。接著，他詳細解釋了IPv4和IPv6網路中的網際網路地址。然後，他採用自底向上的方式來介紹TCP/IP的結構和功能：從鏈路層協定（如Ethernet和Wi-Fi），經網路層、傳輸層到套用層。
書中依次全面介紹了ARP、DHCP、NAT、防火牆、ICMPv4/ICMPv6、廣播、多播、UDP、DNS等，並詳細介紹了可靠傳輸和TCP，包括連線管理、逾時、重傳、互動式數據流和擁塞控制。此外，還介紹了安全和加密的基礎知識，闡述了當前用於保護安全和隱私的重要協定，包括EAP、IPsec、TLS、DNSSEC和DKIM。
本書適合任何希望理解TCP/IP協定如何實現的人閱讀，更是TCP/IP領域研究人員和開發人員的權威參考書。無論你是初學者還是功底深厚的網路領域高手，本書都是案頭必備，將幫助你更深入和直觀地理解整個協定族，構建更好的套用和運行更可靠、更高效的網路。
本書特色：
W. Richard Stevens傳奇般的TCP/IP指南，現在被頂級網路專家Kevin R. Fall更新，反映了新一代的基於TCP/IP的網路技術。
展示每種協定的實際工作原理，並解釋其來龍去脈。

作者介紹
Kevin R. Fall博士有超過25年的TCP/IP工作經驗，並且是網際網路架構委員會成員。他是網際網路研究任務組中延遲容忍網路研究組（DTNRG）的聯席主席，該組致力於在極端和挑戰性能的環境中探索網路。他是一位IEEE院士。
W. Richard Stevens博士（1951—1999）是國際知名的Unix和網路專家，受人尊敬的技術作家和諮詢顧問。他教會了一代網路專業人員使用TCP/IP的技能，使網際網路成為人們日常生活的中心。Stevens於1999年9月1日去世，年僅48歲。在短暫但精彩的人生中，他著有多部經典的傳世之作，包括《TCP/IP 詳解》（三卷本）、《UNIX網路編程》（兩卷本）以及《UNIX環境高級編程》。2000年他被國際權威機構Usenix追授“終身成就獎”。
