Part IV: Navigating the Roadways to Find the Right Street
Address
Part IV gets into more
detail about how networks with multiple LANs work. To deliver end user data
between different LANs, networking devices called routers are used; these
routers forward data based on TCP/IP addresses. Chapter 10 introduces the concepts of TCP/IP
addressing and the basics of routing, and Chapter 11 provides more detail on the routing
process. Chapter 12 describes the
basics of how routers learn how to route packets by using something called a
routing
protocol. Finally, Chapter 13
explains how TCP/IP networks use names and how they are resolved into their
corresponding numeric TCP/IP addresses.
