   The first sentence of this book is, "<i>This is a book about building the
   network you need</i>". 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.<br>
   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.<br>
