TDC 375 701 Assigned Course Book Errata
Book: TCP/IP Protocol Suite, Fourth Edition, Behrouz A. Forouzan

At the end of the quarter I will submit a note detailing book errors
and feedback to the author.  Students who find technical inaccuracies
with the text that have not been previously reported or in an
existing errata for the book will receive credit on their final
homework grade.

I've not yet determined the award system yet, but it will probably
be something like being able to earn up to a total of a perfect
score on your final homework grade.  Based on the current error
detection rate, I'm thinking maybe an extra 20 points per error
added to the 3 top homework grades, when scored at a maximum of 100
each.  Once you reach 300, you're maxed out and will receive a
perfect homework grade.  We'll see what works.

Example 5.27 solution shows the dotted decimal network mask as
255.255.255.240, but it should be 255.255.255.224.

Figures 11.58 and 11.59 have their BGP types transposed.  The

p 596
In the header definition fields, the 'd. TC (truncated)' field is
described as being set when the response is over UDP and the message
size is greater than 512 bytes.  This is not strictly correct and
in practice is often not applicable thanks to EDNS0, which while not
universally deployed, is widely deployed.

p 599
Table 19.4 have the incorrect mnemonic and description for class 3.
It is 'CH' and the 'CHAOS' class respectively.
