You might also try ‘Network Administrator’s Guide’ by O'Reilly or ‘Understanding Linux Network Internals.’ Both are good reads for getting into the nitty-gritty.

I’d recommend ‘Linux Network Administrator's Guide’ by Olaf Kirch. It's very practical and hands-on, which is helpful if you want to apply what you learn directly.

The ‘Linux Command Line’ by William Shotts is a great starting point. It's very approachable for beginners!

If you're looking to dive deeper, ‘TCP/IP Illustrated, Volume 1’ by Stevens is a classic. It’s a bit dated but still a valuable reference! Just keep in mind it might not cover everything on IPv6, but it lays a strong foundation.
