Inhaltsangabe

In this book, the authors offer unprecedented, start-to-finish guidance on making the most of sockets, the de facto standard for UNIX network programming. The authors begin by introducing virtually every basic capability of TCP and UDP sockets, including socket functions and options, I/O multiplexing, and name and address conversions. They present detailed coverage of the Posix.1g standard for sockets and the Posix threads. They also introduce advanced techniques for: establishing IPv4/IPv6 interoperability, implementing non-blocking I/O, routing sockets, broadcasting and multicasting, IP options, multithreading, advanced name and address conversions, UNIX domain protocols, and raw sockets.

Teaches students how to choose among today's leading client/server design approaches, including TCP iterative, concurrent, preforked and prethreaded servers.

The Internet/intranet revolution has dramatically increased the demand for students graduating with a sophisticated understanding of network programming APIs, especially sockets. This book helps students achieve that goal.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

The late W. RICHARD STEVENS was the original author of UNIX Network Programming, First and Second Editions, widely recognized as the classic texts in UNIX networking. BILL FENNER is Principal Technical Staff Member at AT&T Labs in Menlo Park, CA, specializing in IP multicasting, network management, and measurement. He is one of the IETF's Routing Area Directors, responsible for approving all routing-related documents that get published as RFCs. ANDREW M. RUDOFF, Senior Software Engineer at Sun Microsystems, specializes in networking, operating systems internals, file systems, and high availability software architecture.

UNIX Network Programming, Volume 1: The Sockets Networking API, Third Edition

"Everyone will want this book because it provides a great mix of practical experience, historical perspective, and a depth of understanding that only comes from being intimately involved in the field. I've already enjoyed and learned from reading this book, and surely you will too."

--Sam Leffler

The classic guide to UNIX networking APIs... now completely updated!

To build today's highly distributed, networked applications and services, you need deep mastery of sockets and other key networking APIs. One book delivers comprehensive, start-to-finish guidance for building robust, high-performance networked systems in any environment: UNIX Network Programming, Volume 1, Third Edition.

Building on the legendary work of W. Richard Stevens, this edition has been fully updated by two leading network programming experts to address today's most crucial standards, implementations, and techniques. New topics include:

• POSIX Single UNIX Specification Version 3

• IPv6 APIs (including updated guidance on IPv6/IPv4 interoperability)

• The new SCTP transport protocol

• IPsec-based Key Management Sockets

• FreeBSD 4.8/5.1, Red Hat Linux 9.x, Solaris 9, AIX 5.x, HP-UX, and Mac OS X implementations

• New network program debugging techniques

• Source Specific Multicast API, the key enabler for widespread IP multicast deployment

The authors also update and extend Stevens' definitive coverage of these crucial UNIX networking standards and techniques:

• TCP and UDP transport

• Sockets: elementary, advanced, routed, and raw

• I/O: multiplexing, advanced functions, nonblocking, and signal-driven

• Daemons and inetd

• UNIX domain protocols

• ioctl operations

• Broadcasting and multicasting

• Threads

• Streams

• Design: TCP iterative, concurrent, preforked, and prethreaded servers

Since 1990, network programmers have turned to one source for the insights and techniques they need: W. Richard Stevens' UNIX Network Programming. Now, there's an edition specifically designed for today's challenges--and tomorrow's.
