Sinopsis

NSFW Networking: The Safe for Work Edition – Volume 1: Foundational Concepts Without the Corporate Fluff

Networking books usually fall into two categories: corporate-approved manuals that put you to sleep, or certification guides that bury you in theory before you’ve ever touched a switch. This book is different.

NSFW Networking (Safe for Work Edition) is a complete re-write of the first book, NSFW Networking, not just a copy/paste with the cuss words stripped out. This edition contains three brand-new chapters, an improved layout, and expanded explanations across every original section. It stands on its own as a sharper, cleaner, and more complete survival manual for network engineers, sysadmins, and IT pros.

Inside you’ll find:

• A practical, plain-English breakdown of the OSI model, MAC addresses, ARP, VLANs, DHCP, routing, NAT, VPNs, firewalls, ACLs, troubleshooting, and more

• 3 new chapters that dig deeper into redundancy, real-world troubleshooting, and essential networking tools

• Real-world scenarios that show how problems actually play out in production networks

• Configuration examples you can adapt to Cisco, Juniper, and other platforms

• Tips, gotchas, and workflows designed to save your butt when users say, “The internet is down”

• A full toolkit rundown...from ping and traceroute to Wireshark, iPerf, Nmap, and network emulators like GNS3 and EVE-NG

Whether you’re just starting out, stuck maintaining a messy network you inherited, or you’ve been in the trenches for years and still want a no-BS reference, this edition will help you think like a network engineer instead of just memorizing commands.

No cert jargon. No corporate fluff. Just a refined, expanded, and battle-tested guide to surviving real-world networks.
