A few good books

[ece344609_2]

Hi all,

I wanted to know if you guys can recommend some good books on the following topics:

1) Wireshark

2) Switches and Routers

3) Firewalls

4) Intrusion detection

5) Cisco Certification

Actually anything related to networking (i know pretty broad) would be great. Particularly I am hoping that they are readable (as in not boring).

Thanks.

A book that I found very useful and quite interesting was Interconnections: Bridges, Routers, Switches, and Internetworking Protocols by Radia Perlman.

And another of my favorite networking books is Advanced IP Routing in Cisco Networks by Terry Slattery and William Burton.
