#2Nice article. Would be great to see some more detail with a timeframe for the progression and example routers that were known to be early implementers of each design.

#5This is why I stay on HN. This is such a niche, interesting subject that I never would have found otherwise.
I’ve been looking for networking resource that go in depth on things like this, rather than just configuring and setting up equipment. Does anyone know anything like this? I’m especially interested in ones for telecommunications networking technology.

Ok this is really cool. I had no idea content like this existed. Now if only I new anything about general computer architecture.

Hennessy and Patterson is the book you need.

Please check this book "Computer Networking : A Top-Down Approach" By Kurose & Ross. It is the best textbook on computer networking, bar none. The latest edition also covers modern networking concepts, for example Software Defined Networks (SDN).

#9Cool seeing this post tonight. I just finished implementing a router for my networks class like 30 minutes ago.

We use this book and its amazing:

Section 3.5 covers router implementation details.
