This is the thrid book in the Network Frontiers Field Manual Series. This series, written by the developers of the Apple Certified Server Engineer Program, is intended for the Macintosh networking professional and each book is designed to help you do the business of networking.

This book could make the difference between having a pain-in-the-neck network and an I-don't-even-own-a-pager network! The authors of this book have implemented hundreds of great AppleTalk and TCP/IP network designs for clients large and small. They have also fixed a lot of bad network designs. In this heavily illustrated guide, they pass on what they've learned from both. No matter what size your network is or will be, you'll find something that applies to you.
