Red Hat Linux Network Management Tools (CD-ROM included)

Although this book is based on the 2.2 kernel, a lot of it is still very useful.

This incredibly useful book explains clearly in a hands-on practical way everything you need to know about SNMP and MIBs to do network device monitoring, including tutorials/overviews/references for awesome Linux tools to gather and display network information. This book and CD-ROM is now a crucial resource in our small corporate lab which tests and monitors routers and DSL network devices, such as DSLAMs.

Red Hat Linux Network Management Tools is practical. You can immediately put to work the tools listed in this book.
