These are all the textbooks I'm planning to buy. Would you recommend anything else? I want to get closer to RFCs but don't want to start with RFCs.
I would recommend to start with "Cisco Press - CCIE Professional Development Routing TCPIP, Volume I."
it's one of the "classics" every network engineer should read.
then on to Cisco Press - CCIE Professional Development Routing TCPIP, Volume II.
Hmm I'm a system administrator rather than a network engineer. I just need to know tcpip enough to use the linux commands to troubleshoot network issues. that's why
Ping, traceroute, and tcpdump will do ya for nearly every sysadmin issue.
But knowing something of what is happening with the routers and switches is handy. For that purpose, I recommend the CCNA Routing and Switching guides by Wendell Odom. They include a great discussion of TCP/IP along with the networking device details.
But ***THE*** ultimate TCP/IP guide is, well, The TCP/IP Guide. http://tcpipguide.com/
