Ipv6 Network Programming Description: This book contains everything you need to make your application program support IPv6. IPv6 socket APIs (RFC2553) are fully described with real-world examples. It covers security, a great concern these days. To secure the Internet infrastructure, every developer has to take a security stance - to audit every line of code, to use proper API and write correct and secure code as much as possible. To achieve this goal, the examples presented in this book are implemented with a security stance. Also, the book leads you to write secure programs. For instance, the book recommends against the use of some of the IPv6 standard APIs - unfortunately, there are some IPv6 APIs that are inherently insecure, so the book tries to avoid (and discourage) the use of such APIs. Another key issue is portability. The examples in the book should be applicable to any of UNIX based operating systems, MacOS X, and Windows XP. Covers the new protocol just adopted by the Dept of Defense for future systems Deals with security concerns, including spam and email, by presenting the best programming standards Fully describes IPv6 socket APIs (RFC2553) using real-world examples Allows for portability to UNIX-based operating systems, MacOS X, and Windows XP...

Netwrk Managmt Mibs&mpls:prin Design&implmt Description: Provides solutions for common network management problems such as scalability and increased technology mix. Explores the use of MPLS in network management, which is used to improve the overall quality of service. Covers the management of both enterprise and service provider networks.Given the financial strain that most companies find themselves under today, it is crucial to be able to manage large, complex networks in an efficient and cost-effective manner. This book focuses on the components of network management system technology. Morris focuses on the use of MIBS (management information bases), which monitor network management devices across an entire network remotely and gather stats from these devices in order to make informed decisions regarding network traffic management and application deployment. The book goes on to discuss both enterprise and service provider networks and their associated management problems. Networks are growing rapidly and carrying both more traffic and different types of real time - non-real time traffic. Network devices are also becoming increasingly complex, providing support for millions of managed objects such as virtual connections. Scalability is probably the biggest single problem facing network managers. Various methods of tackling scalability issues are discussed including pushing more management intelligence into network devices. The author illustrates proposed solutions in practical examples written in Visual C++ and Java....
