The Computer Networking: Principles, Protocols, and Practice ebook continues to evolve in parallel with Internet technology. During the 2022-2023 academic year, UCLouvain experimented with a new way of organizing the teaching material. Instead of using a top-down or a bottom approach as most networking books do, we divided the course in two parts. The first part covers the protocols that are used by the endhosts and the network is considered as a black box. This part starts with the applications that the students already use. The second part focus on the network infrastructure with the routing protocols and the local area networks.

A new set of slides is available. They have been posted on slideshare:

• Part 1: Introduction and Internet applications
• Part 2: Internet applications and network security
• Part 3: Reliable data transfer over an unreliable network
• Part 4: Reliable transport and TCP
• Part 5: Modern TCP and IP
• Part 6: Building a network
• Part 7: Routing protocols
• Part 8: iBGP
• Part 9: Congestion control
• Part 10: Router traffic control
• Part 11: Local Area Networks

The next step will be to rewrite the ebook to follow this new organisation of the teaching material.
