I am very familiar with the physical maintanance of a very large
broadband lan, but, I know next to nothing about how data is
processed by the various devices on the lan. Such as NIUs, bridges,
and gateways... 

I have heard the software people here speak of TCP-IP. Could
someone please give me a good feel for this protocol? What does
it mean, where is it used, how does it work???

Tnx, 
Russ

1) Subscribe to comp.protocols.tcp-ip and listen in for a while.

2) Buy and read the book "Internetworking with TCP/IP - Principles,
   Protocols, and Architecture" by Douglas Comer, Prentice-Hall 1988,
   ISBN 0-13-470154-2.

Then, you'll know more than about 80% of the people who hold
themselves out as TCP/IP experts :-)
