+The first sentence of this book is, "This is a book about building the +network you need". Taking it from there, Peter walks you through the whys +and the hows of building the high performance, low maintenance network you need, +using OpenBSD tools.
+The book covers all bases from the basic one machine configuration and basic +local area networks, all the way up to configurations with traffic shaping and +load balancing with "self healing" networks and countermeasures against common +problems such as DOS attempts and spamming. A basic understanding of TCP/IP +and some Unix knowledge is assumed.
+The official book website for a sample chapter, table of contents and errata +can be found at +http://www.nostarch.com/pf.htm +
