Hi ^-^

I'm interested in learning about Networking.

What books should I read?

@Demolishun Thank you!

@SevenDeadlyBugs Thank you! I was looking to learn the basics, just to see if it's something I would like to keep learning :)

OSI, TCP/IP, Firewalls, few linux/windows admin tasks

Computer networks by tanenbaum, and while you're at it, modern operating systems by the same author is great too

@j4cobgarby these, both brilliant books. Anything Tannenbaum writes is gold.

@SevenDeadlyBugs most networking textbooks are fairly up to date with latest stuff, they get revised pretty often, and books like Tannenbaum's contain a *lot* of information and also touch other topics too (like distributed systems).

Packet tracer is very good for simulating a network setup

Computer Networking: A Top-Down Approach :) Awesome book even as a reference when you have questions that cross your mind at work or school
