For Networking in the ISP space, for me the most helpful have been: - Interdomain Multicast Routing: Practical Juniper Networks and Cisco Systems Solutions - Inside Cisco IOS Software Architecture - MPLS-Enabled Applications: Emerging Developments and New Technologies This one's not a textbook but proved invaluable to me in learning optical networking: - New and Updated - Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Optical Networking - [VIDEO]
