Hi I am trying to get around some general concepts of networking so I can
have a better understanding of ur book 

1) in the OSI modem there is  a phase known as "Negotiation". what is it
and what is an example of it in the real world?

Compresson is performed at

1)Nework layer
2)Physical layer
3)presentation layer

A router operates at

transport layer
network layer
physical layer

A bridge is a device that operates at

data link
network layer
physical layer

A repeater is a device that operates at

session layer
presentaition layer
Data link layer
Physical layer

BTW ur FREEBSD Book is really good. Not as try and boring as "Oreily's
Sendmail"
