It's not there, It'a all in the hardware. That's why you can't find it.

What'd I'd suggest if you reaaly want to know more about networking, or
do more with networking is first brush up your knowledge of such matter.
Either TCP/IP Illustrated or Andy Tanenbaum's Computer Networks are good
startingpoints.I mention this because I think you may profit from the
knowledge of the basic networking concepts presented in these books.
