If you've ever wondered how Linux carries out the complicated tasks assigned to it by the IP protocols -- or if you just want to learn about modern networking through real-life examples -- Understanding Linux Network Internals is for you. 如果你曾想知道linux如何通过IP协议分配复杂的任务或者如果你想通过现实的例子学习现代网络--深入理解linux网络内幕将会给你想得到的。 Like the popular O'Reilly book, Understanding the Linux Kernel, this book clearly explains the underlying concepts and teaches you how to follow the actual C code that implements it. Although some background in the TCP/IP protocols is helpful, you can learn a great deal from this text about the protocols themselves and their uses. And if you already have a base knowledge of C, you can use the book's code walkthroughs to figure out exactly what this sophisticated part of the Linux kernel is doing. 作为O`Reilly出版的书，理解linux内核，这本书清晰地解释了底层概念，教你如何编写可执行的c代码。虽然TCP/IP协议的背景是有帮助的，你仍然能够从这本书中学习很多协议本身的东西和他们的应用。如果你已经有了C代码的基本知识，你能使用这本书的代码预演来事实上理解Linux内核的复杂部分。 Part of the difficulty in understanding networks -- and implementing them -- is that the tasks are broken up and performed at many different times by different pieces of code. One of the strengths of this book is to integrate the pieces and reveal the relationships between far-flung functions and data structures. Understanding Linux Network Internals is both a big-picture discussion and a no-nonsense guide to the details of Linux networking. Topics include: 理解和执行他们的难点是任务在许多不同的时间被不同的代码块分解和执行。这本书的一个优点就是整合了这些块，揭示了广布的函数和数据结构之间的关系。深入理解linux网络内幕是是一个对已Linux网络的要点讨论和实际的指导。话题包括: Key problems with networking 网络关键问题 Network interface card (NIC) device drivers 网卡设备驱动 System initialization 系统初始化 Layer 2 (link-layer) tasks and implementation 第二层（链路层）的任务和执行 Layer 3 (IPv4) tasks and implementation 第三层（IP协议第四版）任务和执行 Neighbor infrastructure and protocols (ARP) 相邻的基础设施和协议（地址解析协议） Bridging 桥接 Routing 路由选择   ICMP 网间控制报文协议 Author Christian Benvenuti, an operating system designer specializing in networking, explains much more than how Linux code works. He shows the purposes of major networking features and the trade-offs involved in choosing one solution over another. A large number of flowcharts and other diagrams enhance the book's understandability. 作者克里斯汀，一个专攻网络方面的操作系统开发人员，解释的比Linux如何工作多的多。他通过其他方面展示了主要网络特征和在选择解决方案时的协议包含。
