Maison d'édition: HiTeX Press

Synopsis

"Spanning Tree Protocol Essentials""Spanning Tree Protocol Essentials" offers a comprehensive examination of the foundational technology that underpins resilient, loop-free Layer 2 networks. Beginning with a deep dive into network fundamentals, the text demystifies the origins of Ethernet switching and the perils of network loops, providing historical context and a solid rationale for the development and adoption of the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP). Core terminology, the impact of broadcast storms, and early loop-avoidance techniques are thoroughly explored, setting the stage for an intricate understanding of STP's essential role in modern networking.The book meticulously covers the theoretical and architectural underpinnings of STP and its numerous variants, including Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP), Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP), and Cisco’s Per-VLAN Spanning Tree (PVST). Readers will gain insight into critical elements such as graph theory application, bridge and port roles, timer mechanisms, and convergence behaviors. Practical considerations are woven throughout, from operational optimization and scalability to advanced deployment scenarios—including data centers, multi-tenant environments, and L2 overlays—ensuring that professionals can architect robust, high-performance networks.Cognizant of the evolving threat landscape, "Spanning Tree Protocol Essentials" dedicates significant attention to the security posture of STP-enabled networks, detailing common attack vectors, defense mechanisms such as BPDU Guard and Root Guard, and best practices for incident response and operational excellence. The final chapters extend the discussion to future-facing technologies like SPB, TRILL, SDN, and network automation, equipping engineers with forward-looking strategies and a command of continuous validation, troubleshooting, and skills development. This guide not only clarifies protocol intricacies, but empowers networking professionals to design, secure, and manage resilient infrastructure in a rapidly changing landscape.

World of Warcraft

Daniel Lisi

At more than 100 million user accounts created and over $10 billion made, it is not only the most-subscribed MMORPG in the world, but the highest-grossing video game of all time. Ten years after its launch, Blizzard Entertainment's World of Warcraft is less a game and more a world unto itself, and it's a world Daniel Lisi knows well. More time in his high school years was spent in Azeroth than in his hometown of Irvine, California—a home he happened to share with Blizzard itself. 
 
 
 
Now that Lisi has founded his own game development studio, WoW remains his most powerful example of just how immersive and consuming a game can be. Based on research, interviews, and the author's own experience in a hardcore raiding guild, Lisi's book examines WoW's origins, the addictive power of its gameplay loop, the romances WoW has both cemented and shattered, the enabling power of anonymity, and the thrill of conquering BlizzCon with guildmates you've known for years and just met for the first time.

Call of the Kingfisher - Bright...

Nick Penny

Call of the Kingfisher is the enchanting debut from composer and wildlife recordist Nick Penny. This love letter to a short stretch of Northamptonshire's River Nene celebrates all the wild things that live there, especially the kingfishers. Nick has walked beside the river at Oundle for four decades. But for a whole year he gave the waterway all the time it asked for. The more attention he gave it, the more he saw the kingfishers and heard their high whistling calls. Set in a lovely but little-known part of England, Call of the Kingfisher relates a year by the river, the author's experiences there and the different people he meets. Other strands are woven around the elusive feathered protagonist: explorations of local history and landscape, from Roman and Bronze Age sites to watermills and centuries-old stone churches; visits at different times and to different places in the valley; homages to naturalists who lived nearby; forest dawns and dusks listening to the precious song of nightingales. But the background tapestry is the sights and sounds, and greens and browns, of the riverbank, shot through with the blue and orange threads of a kingfisher's glowing feathers.As a composer and wildlife recordist, Nick has a deep interest in sounds in the natural environment. He uses the local landscape and wildlife sounds as inspiration, and brings fresh insights into the sounds of the countryside. The book includes access to a number of high-quality birdsong recordings made alongside the River Nene - audio soundbites of nature's riches, from kingfishers and nightingales to owls and cuckoos. This is a book about the things that can be seen and heard when we approach nature with patience and curiosity. It celebrates people who have used that focus to help preserve wildlife and pass on their knowledge to future generations. Above all, Call of the Kingfisher serves as a call to appreciate what we've got, wherever we are, and to use our ears as much as our eyes when we experience the natural world.
