Summary: Very comprehensive!
Comment: This book covers all aspects of TCP/IP, and even a lot more about networking in general. Very good!
Rating: 5
Summary: Wonderful Teacher
Comment: I took Karanjit's class at Learning Tree and I have to say no one has been able to teach me subnetting like that before. His book is almost straight out of his class with much more detail. I would strongly suggest taking his class, but if you are unable, and are looking to get a solid understanding of TCP/IP, read this book. His credentials are impeccable, and his teaching style is, in my opinion, one of the best. I have taken some MCSE classes, and some other Internet classes, and have yet to learn as much from someone as I did from him.

Summary: If you can tolerate the errors, some educational value
Comment: I am responsible for a 50+ person intrusion detection mission, and I read this book in the spring of 1999. I bought this book for two reasons. First, I did not believe I was "ready" for Richard Stevens' "TCP/IP Illustrated" books. (That was probably not true.) Second, I was looking for a book with traces of network packets, linking an explanation to raw hex. After reading this book, Stevens' Volume 1, and Eric Hall's "Core Internet Protocols," I would not recommend Mr. Siyan's book, unless you plan to be an error detective. Like an earlier reviwer, I too spent a LOT of time discovering and correcting errors. While this did teach me some material in a "novel" way, I would not subject the introductory reader to such treatment. Now that Eric Hall's book has been published, readers can look for explanations and packet traces in a practically error-free book, rather than figuring it out themselves. (That removes reason 2 for buying the book.) Still, I do give "Inside TCP/IP" three stars for its good coverage of the protocol and useful diagrams. Buyer beware, however!
