Description

Preface

The goal of this book is to provide a basic understanding of the
technical design and architecture of the Internet. The book is
aimed at all audiences – even those with absolutely no prior tech-
nical experience or math skills. The Internet is an amazingly beau-
tiful design and should be understood by all who use it.
While this book is not about the Network+ or CCNA certifications,
I hope it serves as a way to give students interested in these
certifications a good starting point.
I want to thank Pamela Fox of Khan Academy for coming up with
the idea of an introductory network technology course using open
materials.
I initially developed this material as a single week’s lecture in the
SI502 - Networked Computing course that I taught at the Univer-
sity of Michigan School of Information starting in 2008. I refined
and expanded the material to be three weeks of the Internet His-
tory, Technology, and Security (IHTS) course that I have taught to
over 100,000 students on Coursera starting in 2012. This book
adds further detail to create a standalone text that can be read
for enjoyment or used to support an introductory course that fo-
cuses on the Internet’s architecture.
This book has been particularly fun in that it is a collaboration with
my friends Mauro Toselli (@xlontrax) and Sue Blumenberg. I met
Mauro and Sue in 2012 when they became volunteer Community
Teaching Assistants (CTAs) for my IHTS course on Coursera. Over
the past three years we have become friends and colleagues. It
is a great example of how open education can bring people to-
gether.
