Sun ONE solutions, and other services, depend tremendously on optimal
network infrastructures. However, there is currently very little information
available on how to successfully deploy a strategy based on Sun Networking
solutions. Networking technologies have evolved and current basic books do
not addresss the needs of customers who want to understand Sun Networking
technology offerings and how to integrate them with advanced networking
switching equipment. This book covers emerging IP services, giving the reader
a thorough reference of concise information on what Sun's services in this
arena are, what benefits they provide, how they are implemented, and exactly
where you would want to use them. Example services include Quality of
Service, Server Load Balancing, SSL, IPSec, and much more. The authors also
tackle the design of highly available, scaleable, manageable gigabit network
architectures with a focus on the server to switch tier.
