This text is the bible for "Network Design and Implementation," the "named" course for Networking Management at Sacred Heart Junior College... for good reason, it gives a very good introduction to the varied tasks which are involved in managing a network. There is always a need to research further in a specific topic, but for general information this is a great source. (
