This two-volume set focuses on fundamental concepts and design
goals (i.e., a switch/router's key features), architectures, and
practical applications of switch/routers in IP networks. The
discussion includes practical design examples to illustrate how
switch/routers are designed and how the key features are
implemented. Designing Switch/Routers: Fundamental Concepts, Design
Methods, Architectures, and Applications begins by providing an
introductory level discussion that covers the functions and
architectures of the switch/router. The first book considers the
switch/router as a generic Layer 2 and Layer 3 forwarding device
without placing emphasis on any particular manufacturer's device.
The underlining concepts and design methods are not only positioned
to be applicable to this generic switch/router, but also to the
typical switch/router seen in the industry. The discussion provides
a better insight into the protocols, methods, processes, and tools
that go into designing switch/routers. The second volume explains
the design and architectural considerations, as well as, the
typical processes and steps used to build practical switch/routers.
It then discusses the advantages of using Ethernet in today's
networks and why Ethernet continues to play a bigger role in Local
Area Network (LAN), Metropolitan Area Network (MAN), and Wide Area
Network (WAN) design. This book set provides a discussion of the
design of switch/routers and is written in a style to appeal to
undergraduate and graduate-level students, engineers, and
researchers in the networking and telecoms industry, as well as
academics and other industry professionals. The material and
discussion are structured in such a way that they could serve as
standalone teaching material for networking and telecom courses
and/or supplementary material for such courses.

This book discusses link-state routing protocols (OSPF and IS-IS),
and the path-vector routing protocol (BGP). It covers their most
identifying characteristics, operations, and the databases they
maintain. Material is presented from a practicing engineer's
perspective, linking theory and fundamental concepts to common
practices and real-world examples. Every aspect of the book is
written to reflect current best practices using real-world
examples. The book begins with a detailed description of the OSPF
area types and hierarchical routing, and the different types of
routers used in an OSPF autonomous system. The author goes on to
describe in detail the different OSPF packet types, and inbound and
outbound processing of OSPF link-state advertisements (LSAs). Next,
the book gives an overview of the main features of IS-IS. The
author then discusses the two-level routing hierarchy for
controlling the distribution of intra-domain (Level 1) and
inter-domain (Level 2) routing information within an IS-IS routing
domain. He then describes in detail IS-IS network address formats,
IS-IS routing metrics, IS-IS packet types, IS-IS network types and
adjacency formation, IS-IS LSDB and synchronization, and IS-IS
authentication. The book then reviews the main concepts of
path-vector routing protocols, and describes BGP packet types, BGP
session states and Finite State Machine, BGP path attributes types,
and BGP Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs). Focuses solely on
link-state routing protocols (OSPF and IS-IS), and the only
path-vector routing protocol in use today (BGP). Reviews the basic
concepts underlying the design of IS-IS and provides a detailed
description of IS-IS area types and hierarchical routing, and the
different types of routers used by IS-IS. Discusses the two-level
routing hierarchy for controlling the distribution of intra-domain
(Level 1) and inter-domain (Level 2) routing information within an
IS-IS routing domain. Describes in detail BGP packet types, BGP
session states and Finite State Machine, BGP path attributes types,
and BGP ASNs, includes a high-level view of the typical BGP router
and its components, and inbound and outbound message processing.

This book focuses on the fundamental concepts of IP routing and
distance-vector routing protocols (RIPv2 and EIGRP). It discusses
routing protocols from a practicing engineer's perspective, linking
theory and fundamental concepts to common practices and everyday
examples. The book benefits and reflects the author's more than 22
years of designing and working with IP routing devices and
protocols (and Telecoms systems, in general). Every aspect of the
book is written to reflect current best practices using real-world
examples. This book describes the various methods used by routers
to learn routing information. The author includes discussion of the
characteristics of the different dynamic routing protocols, and how
they differ in design and operation. He explains the processing
steps involved in forwarding IP packets through an IP router to
their destination and discusses the various mechanisms IP routers
use for controlling routing in networks. The discussion is
presented in a simple style to make it comprehensible and appealing

This two-volume book describes the most common IP routing protocols
used today, explaining the underlying concepts of each protocol and
how the protocol components and processes fit within the typical
router. Unlike other books, this title is not vendor focused.
Volume 1 discusses fundamental concepts of IP routing and
distance-vector routing protocols (RIPv2 and EIGRP). Volume 2
focuses on link-state routing protocols (OSPF and IS-IS) and the
only path-vector routing protocol in use today (BGP). The volumes
explain the types of databases each routing protocol uses, how the
databases are constructed and managed, and how the various protocol
components and processes, relate and interact with the databases.
They also describe the routing protocols from a systems
perspective, recognizing the most important routing and packet
forwarding components and functions of a router. An illustrated
description of IP routing protocols is given using real-world
network examples. The books are presented from a practicing
engineer's perspective, linking theory and fundamental concepts to
common practices and real-world examples. The discussion is
presented in a simple style to make it comprehensible and appealing
to undergraduate and graduate level students, research and
practicing engineers, scientists, IT personnel, and network
