Using plain language, it clearly explains technical terms in context, provides insight into the operation and applications of various Internet technologies, and discusses the appropriate standards. The book's A-to-Z format features over 200 alphabetically arranged topics, short, yet comprehensive articles, helpful cross-references, and clear illustrations to give you an easy way to fill knowledge gaps.

>Enhance marketing, customer service, technical support, database management, and legacy data functions via the Internet
>Develop and manage corporate intranets, web sites, FTP sites, electronic commerce applications, news groups, e-mail systems, and firewalls
>Use the Internet for communications including telephony, faxing, paging, videoconferencing, collaborative computing and to support network design and management tasks, help-desk operations, and systems administration.
