This book primarily covers the fundamental theories and technologies of computer networks, with a strong emphasis on practicality. It follows the OSI (Open Systems Interconnection) reference model as its main framework, explaining concepts in a hierarchical manner. The content includes: data exchange, characteristics of local area networks (LANs), high-speed network technologies and their corresponding protocols, IPv6 and network technologies, as well as network management and information security. In terms of content selection, it combines basic theories with new technologies, clearly explaining the fundamental theories of computer networks while also introducing the development of new network technologies, with a focus on Windows 2000 and TCP/IP network technologies.
The book is rich in content and up-to-date, with exercises at the end of each chapter and a full set of teaching slides available for instructors to use in teaching. It can serve as a textbook for computer science, tools, and data communication majors in higher education institutions, as well as a technical reference for network designers, manufacturers, users, and system administrators.
