	"Routing in the Internet", or csomething really close - 
	they have 'em at Barnes'n'Noble and McGraw Hills.

	Go for RFC - they provide the most details.


	CISCO has good library of so called
	CASE STUDIES - they have pretty decent one on
	OSPF and BGP-OSPF interactions.


	Proprietory routing protos , such as (E)IGRP  can
	be studied only from CISCO manuals - try to get yourself
	latest CD from CISCO.

	High level stuff can also be found at MERIT - those
	who don't read it end up as Netcom and AOL :) did.
