One of the joys of teaching is when your students show you something you would never have found by yourself. In this case, they found an URL which indexes an IDG book chapter on "Networking Fundamentals" with a clear explanation of the OSI model, the most common networking protocols, and basic routing concepts/problems.
Another example of this is the following excellent site:
http://searchnetworking.techtarget.com/originalContent/0,289142,sid7_gci929528,00.html
which contains inter alia as good a short explanation of IPv6, complete with reference links, as anything I have ever seen.
