I found this book to be outstanding. Very easy to read and understand.
Solidified my understanding of a lot of layer 2 technologies. Does a great
intro on the telephone system and why transmission rates are what they are.
Always nice to have a historical understanding in addition to the technical
understanding.

Subject: Re: My Layer 2 knowledge sucks
As far as the LAN goes, Radia Perlman's Interconnections (the 1999 version)
is the bible. Black has some books about DSx, OC-x, and ATM that are very
detailed, but imho not very easy to read.
Hope this helps
