Book: Networks - Top down approach.

Also check the CCNA course "Jeremy's IT Lab" on YouTube. Highly recommend.

For BGP there’s [1] which is quite new and I wanted to check out, haven’t had the time yet. There are some older guides e.g. by Cisco as well.

I think in general more of the documentation and information is in blog posts and RFCs, so I’d start there, e.g. [2] is quite nice.
