Good reading to start learning network

| Not sure how to name my goal, because my knowledge about IT is really small. For some months, however, I have been fascinated with network architecture, security, evolution of protocols. All that is under the hood while I browse the web.

I am aware of some things and know a lot of details, but have no basis. And that stalls my own development. So where did you get your basis, g/u/rls? Some good reading you recommend?

tl;dr I want to learn real internet where do i start


| Actually i am in the same position as you so i surely need some advises.For all my way to here i have tried gaining knowledge from books but the majority has only basic staff.


| The Internet is like: a few computers connectd make a lan. Many such lans connected make a bigger lan. These bigger ones connected make even bigger networks which lets call them wan. A group of these connected make a bigger wan. By now we have reached country sized networks. Connect these together across the globe and the resulting thing is a huge network that we call Internet.
So, start small and work your way up.

Get a grip of what it takes to build a lan. What is the tech required. Protocols involved. How two computers talk to each other. And once comfortable with these, think of stepping into the problem of how to join two exactly the same lans to be part of a network. You will bump across some very interesting issues at even this very early stage, one for example being ip address duplication and the need for routing.

Then try to reverse-engineer a networking protocol. You'll be surprised how hard it is. That's how i develop clientless bots for games.

Ok at least thats seems promising i will try it.


| OP here,
thanks everyone!
