There is a second edition, expanded and improved:

	Internetworking with TCP/IP, Vol.1: Principles, Protocols
	and Architecture by Douglas E. Comer, (c) 1991, Prentice-Hall,
	ISBN 0-13-468505-9.

The second volume was scheduled for last November, but as far as I know
it is still not out. The blurb in the back of the first volume says:

	Internetworking with TCP/IP, Vol.2: Implementation
	and Internals by Douglas E.Comer and David L.Stevens.
