Free eBook “Open Networks” from Free Technology Academy. This free ebook explores the different aspects of open technologies that are at the foundations of modern computer networks.
Book Description
The Internet is built on top of open protocols and open standards. “Open” in this context means the opposite of “private”. Private networks are those which belong to companies or institutions who impose restrictions on users who join them. Open networks do not belong to anybody because the devices they use are made available by the members of the community.
