    Je pense que citer le « TCP/IP Illustrated » sera la meilleure façon de le faire.

    The TCP/IP protocol suite allows computers of all sizes, from many different computer vendors,
    running totally different operating systems, to communicate with each other.
    It is quite amazing because its use has far exceeded its original estimates.
    What started in the late 1960s as a government-financed research project into packet switching networks has,
    in the 1990s, turned into the most widely used form of networking between computers. It is truly an open system
    in that the definition of the protocol suite and many of its implementations are publicly available at little or no charge.
    It forms the basis for what is called the worldwide Internet, or the Internet, a wide area network (WAN)
    of more than one million computers that literally spans the globe.

    This chapter provides an overview of the TCP/IP protocol suite, to establish an adequate background
    for the remaining chapters. For a historical perspective on the early development of TCP/IP see [Lynch 1993].

    Je ne sais pas si cela te suffira. Sinon, je peux essayer de répondre à des questions plus précises qui resteraient
    sans réponse. Sinon, je t'invite à consulter le volume 1 de TCP/IP Illustrated, disponible -pas légal? probablement- sur Internet,
    via une simple recherche sur Google.
