A fair SNA substitute

TCP/IP Tutorial and Technical Overview (IBM Redbook) explains Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol.
Includes:
Understand networking fundamentals of the TCP/IP protocol suite

Introduces advanced concepts and new technologies

Includes the latest TCP/IP protocols

It is from December 2006 and may be a bit dated.

It is a very practical book and quite details with plenty of graphs.

It assumes you are aware of many other network protocols. However, it slows down to explain things like the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol.

Nothing is obsolete so you can get a book base for further study.
