All information in one book.Right from basics to advanced topics. Worth calling a Bible that I always wanted to have....Thank u authors.

There have been times when I have ended up purchasing various books but in vain. This book is a bible in real sense. It provides security information right from basics to advanced topics. Gives a network administrator strong understanding of concepts. Thank u authors.

Summary: Already finding ideas for my job from this book.
Review: Network security is fast becoming a most important job. It is imperative that you know the right way, the best way and if your equipment is Cisco, the Cisco way. This book may very well the bible for Cisco Security policy. The authors have put together some of the best work on ACL and firewall using PIX. The detail is nothing short of amazing and their ability to make the subject matter is also a plus for this book. One area that I am not all that familiar with is the CISCO AAA, but after reading the 70 pages, I was amazed at amount of information included and also how important AAA is to creating a high secure network. There also detailed coverage of VPN technologies, the only thing I found strange was that networking basics is at the end of book rather than the beginning. There are review questions at the end of each chapter and about a half dozen labs to work with. Not written o any specific exam, this book can and should help with all Cisco security exams as well as several industry exam like Security+. Overall some of the best reading and learning I have all year.

Summary: Very academic book
Review: This book seems like it was written straight out of the Manuals.
In short it seems like the editor cut+paste straight out of the Manuals. The author does not seem to have real world experience of configuring security on routers for a large ISP like [a phone company]. Good if you want to crack exams but not if you want to keep your job.

Summary: Excellent book
Review: This is a great value and thus a must-buy. It's unfortunate that Amazon doesn't have a TOC, so people can see all the numerous topics covered (and the topics do seem to be covered in good detail). I think it covers every of a couple dozen relevant topics. There are 2 chapters at the end (appendix?) which cover the basics of networking, which is either a plus if you can use this, or just ignore them if you're a "heavy". And there's an interesting substantial QUIZ chapter/appendix.
I'm SURE you'll be glad you bot this one!

Summary: Excellent book
Review: With so many books on Cisco products it is difficult to decide which one to buy. Believe me...this one is the best.....While most books concentrate on one kind of Cisco products...this books talks about all....so u don't need to buy 2 or 3 books if you want to know about all the products....And the best part is that this book has the configuration and installation procedures for ALL products......
