What is custom duty/charge?

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order?

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges?

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

This is an impressive guide to OpenStack “Neutron” Networking, written by James Denton of Rackspace - one of the leading companies in the OpenStack ecosystem. I was lucky to pick up a copy at the recent OpenStack summit in Paris, which RackSpace - James himself actually - were generously distributing.The book is organized into 8 chapters covering an introduction to OpenStack networking and installation followed by more detailed configuration of networks, routing, load balancing and firewalls. It provides a very complete and detailed coverage of Neutron networking in a recent OpenStack release (Havana). Every chapter finishes with a useful summary of what’s just been covered.I was initially surprised by the second chapter detailing an OpenStack installation, which seemed unnecessary and simplistic, but I guess it’s necessary to provide a common base for the rest of the book which is essentially a cookbook. So the book starts by a manual installation of OpenStack Havana on a CentOS base. Chapter 3 pursues with Neutron installation.A cookbook it definitely is, and you will get the most out of this book by working through the many configurations described throughout the book. Nevertheless, the book is still a good read if you only read along. I particularly appreciated Chapter 4 “Building a Virtual Switching Infrastructure”, for it’s clear description of different networking models, bridging and the use of LinuxBridge or OpenvSwitch. There’s also coverage of the OpenFlow flow rules managed by OVS. This chapter then describe how to configure one of these core layer2 plugins.The ML2 plugin framework is also mentioned and covered in an appendix, but not in great detail still being a work in progress. Note that LinuxBridge and OVS are already deprecated in the IceHouse release of OpenStack … that’s how fast OpenStack moves.Once the initial OpenStack and Neutron installation/configuration is covered it’s good to see that instructions cover both command-line and dashboard means of making modifications. Chapters 5 and 6 cover operations such as creation of networks, subnets and routers in great detail.Chapters 7 and 8 terminate the book discussing what today are the main applications of Neutron networking: load balancing and firewalls. Load Balancing as a Service (LBaaS) is covered in detail describing it’s use for creating highly available applications across a group of load-balanced servers as well as limitations in the current Havana (and IceHouse) releases. Firewall as a service (FWaaS) is described as experimental in the IceHouse OpenStack release.Appendices cover Neutron extensions for third-party plugins and the ML2 (“Modular Layer2”) plugin framework which will be the basis for all future network plugins for Neutron networking.OpenStack is a huge and fast moving open source project, and Neutron is arguably one of the more complex areas, so Kudos to James for providing this excellent snapshot of this critically important cloud technology. I can’t wait for the second edition …. in a couple of years.

openstackはいろいろな部品からできているため、多くの参考書は概要や技術の触りだけを説明しているものがほとんどです。"Learning OpenStack Networking (Neutron)"はNetworking serviceに特化しながらも、各コンポーネントをインストールするところから解説付きで説明しています。よくあるAll-In-Oneのインストールではなく、二台のサーバーにマニュアルインストールをしていく構成ですので、各ステップを消化していけばopenstackの動きがわかるようにできています。openstackを実際にハンズオンで試したい、というネットワーク技術者であれば非常に有意義な本です。neutron...各サービス（LBaaS, FWaaS）の説明とハンズオンその他コンポーネント...インストール手順の説明とハンズオン

Greetings;This is the 1st book dedicated to Networking in Openstack, that's why I have pre-ordered it as soon as I see it. Author is a real time development engineer in related area and it has advantages & dis-advantages.Advantages: Since he is Subject Matter Expert, he does not "BS", he presents his knowledge from practice, lab-implementation side.Dis-Advantages: Like in every engineer (including myself) who writes a technical document, Author has assumed reader is full aware what is going on behind the scenes; such as "Openflow rules within OVS", such as usage of Neutron L3 Agent may cause bottle neck for high bandwidth traffic and it is a single point of failure.I recommend this book to new beginners of Openstack to learn little bit more about Neutron and have a general idea about forthcoming fancy features...I am looking forward for 2nd Edition with wider & deeper coverage.Ps; Ready to pay more for more knowledge :-)

This book is a great guide for working with OpenStack and Neutron. It gives you a much better understanding of how to untangle deploy the messy world of Neutron.
