DUBLIN--(Business Wire)--
Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/832744/tcpip_architectur) has
announced the addition of John Wiley and Sons Ltd's new report "TCP/IP
Architecture, Design and Implementation in Linux" to their offering. 

This book provides thorough knowledge of Linux TCP/IP stack and kernel framework
for its network stack, including complete knowledge of design and
implementation. Starting with simple client-server socket programs and
progressing to complex design and implementation of TCP/IP protocol in linux,
this book provides different aspects of socket programming and major TCP/IP
related algorithms. In addition, the text features netfilter hook framework, a
complete explanation of routing sub-system, IP QOS implementation, and Network
Soft IRQ. This book further contains elements on TCP state machine
implementation, TCP timer implementation on Linux, TCP memory management on
Linux, and debugging TCP/IP stack using lcrash 

Key Topics Covered:

1. INTRODUCTION. 

2. PROTOCOL FUNDAMENTALS. 

3. KERNEL IMPLEMENTATION OF SOCKETS. 

4. KERNEL IMPLEMENTATION OF TCP CONNECTION SETUP. 

5. sk_buff AND PROTOCOL HEADERS. 

6. MOVEMENT OF sk_buff ACROSS PROTOCOL LAYERS. 

7. TCP SEND. 

8. TCP RECEIVE. 

9. TCP MEMORY MANAGEMENT. 

10. TCP TIMERS. 

11. TCP CORE PROCESSING. 

12. TCP STATE PROCESSING. 

13. NETLINK SOCKETS. 

14. IP ROUTING. 

15. IP QUALITY OF SERVICE IN LINUX (IP QoS). 

16. IP FILTER AND FIREWALL. 

17. NET SOFTIRQ. 

18. TRANSMISSION AND RECEPTION OF PACKETS.
