Networks, TCP/IP addressing et all

I'd suggest these:

TCP/IP Illustrated Volume 1: The Protocols - bit of a "classic" if there is such a thing.

The TCP/IP Guide

Read the relevant RFCs - They're on't web!

I found RFC 1149 to be particularly usefull

Is an excellent reference, including some more obscure information.

Ah yes, the old PPPP (Point to Point Pigeon Protocol).

Yeah but the jitter buffer is a bastard to implement!

Can anyone recommend a book, course or DVD on networking i.e. explaining IP addressing, Port allocation etc etc.

TIA.

Cisco CCNA/CCNP Courseware is not too bad. Especially if you could couple it with actual course and hands-on exercises in lab on real hardware.
