Introduction to TCP and Sockets (2001)

If I want to implement some rudimentary communications protocol between two machines in Rust, just for learning, is this where I should begin?

Edit: perhaps not quite. Seems like this lives “on top of” TCP or UDP. I should probably read through this then look for something like a “how to implement ICMP” guide.

Or maybe https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TCP/IP_Illustrated if you need to get down to the packet level.

This seems close to what you're asking for: https://github.com/smoltcp-rs/smoltcp

A small-ish tcp/ip stack, in rust, that can use TAP so you're down in the weeds making the packets.
