Well, to add $0.02 from a F/OSS perspective:

Chapter 16 of Greg Lehey's "The Complete FreeBSD" is pretty
extensive; certainly a step beyond the Project's Handbook in
regards to networking; in the later chapters he relates this
knowledge to FreeBSD specifically.

If you're subscribed to the list(s), you may be aware that Greg
recently released the book *and* its source under a Creative
Commons license:

Might be worth a look.
