About this book
The book is The Hitchhikers Guide to the Internet by Ed Krol, dated 25 August 1987. The opening says the document assumes that one is familiar with the workings of a non-connected simple IP network. The opening says the document is not a tutorial, and consists of pointers to other places.
The text says the internal workings of the Internet are defined by a set of documents called RFCs (Request for Comments). The text says ISI (the Informational Sciences Institute) does much of the research, standardization, and allocation work of the Internet. The text says RIP works best for nets of small diameter where the links are of equal speed, because the metric used to determine which path is best is the hop-count. A list of documents includes, among others, RFC-854 Telnet Protocol and RFC-959 File Transfer Protocol (FTP).
