I'm looking into a sysadmin job with a company that has a fairly large
network of Suns (45 stations, with more on the way) on twisted pair
Ethernet, along with a 56k bps leased-line connection to their home
office.

I have pretty broad experience administering local Unixes, but I could
use a networking boost.  I'd like to get hold of a book or books on
topics like:

	* Monitoring/maintaining Ethernet performance

	* WAN alternatives (leased line vs. competitors, etc.)

	* Everything You Always Wanted to Know about Bridges and Routers
	  But Were Afraid to Ask

	* Anticipating trouble before it bites you

Thanks in advance for any references.
