Carrier Scale IP Networks: Designing and Operating Internet Networks (Bt Communications Technology Series, 1)

Communications networks are now dominated by Internet protocol (IP) technologies. This book comprehensively reviews the design, provision and operations of carrier-scale Internet networks. Every aspect of networking, from access to the core network to the surrounding operational support systems has been radically affected by the rapid development of IP technologies and this book presents a good balance between leading edge technology and many of the practical issues surrounding carrier-scale IP networks. This makes for essential reading for those with a technical or business interest in this rapidly changing area.
