SynopsisFor advanced or second level courses in Computer Networking at the undergraduate or graduate level. Focusing on network processor technology a recent development that has become a standard tool used by designers this book explores the motivation and use of network processors. Comer provides a superb overview, describes the design of network systems such as routers, bridges, switches, firewalls, and other equipment used on the Internet. Part I of the text considers protocol processing and covers implementations on a range of hardware architectures used in traditional network systems; Part II explores network processor technology; Part III examines one network processor in detail, the Agere APP550. Examples throughout are taken from commercially available products, but no knowledge of industry jargon is assumed., Focusing on network processor technology, this book explores the motivation and use of network processors. Comer provides an overview, describes the design of network systems such as routers, bridges, switches, firewalls, and other equipment used on the Internet.
