Design, Measurement and Management of Large-Scale IP Networks: Bridging the Gap Between Theory and Practice

Designing efficient Internet Protocol (IP) networks and maintaining them effectively poses a range of challenges, but in this highly competitive industry it is crucial that these are overcome. Weaving together theory and practice, this title sets out the design and management principles of large-scale IP networks, and the need for tasks to be underpinned by actual measurements. Discussions of the types of measurements available in IP networks are included, along with the ways in which they ...
