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 address 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.
