sams-Linux socket programming

This book teaches readers how to program Linux sockets, and gives them everything they need to know to make programs communicate effetively over networks. It presents a comprehensive discussion of all relevant topics including: writing programs compatible with both Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) and IPv6, raw sockets, User Datagram Protocol (UDP), broadcasting /multicasting, server internals, and more, plus a section covering Posix threads. It provides thorough coverage of programming with the TCP, UDP, and IP protocols, as well as lower-level raw sockets. The myriad of function calls, data structures, and options associated with the APIs are explained with well-chosen diagrams and tables. * After reading this book, the reader will be able to: * Differentiate basic datagrams vs. streaming sockets. * Differentiate unicast, broadcast, and multicast sockets. * Write socket-based network programs. * Write portable code for various OS'. * Implement client-server and peer communications * Increase network throughput using "connectionless" communications * Manage asynchronous I/O, I/O and multiple sockets. * Use signals, threading and processes to manage socket connections. * Understand new socket technologies like Mbone and 6bone. * Understand Remote Procedure Calls and how to implement them. * Understand the different socket addressing types.
