Summary: This book is ESSENTIAL for FW-1 administrators
Review: This is the single best resource I have ever read on the subject of Checkpoint FireWall-1. The chapters on VPNs and NAT alone are worth the price of the book. Dameon Welch has done the firewall admin community a huge service through his website, [...], and now through this book. You simply cannot find a lot of the information contained in this book anywhere else - everything is covered, from planning and installation through content security, VPNs, SecuRemote and Client and high availability. Not only does he cover the hows and whys, there is an extensive amount of troubleshooting at the end of every topic. I really can't recommend this book enough!

Summary: Excellent Book
Review: Training classes for checkpoint was'nt an option for me and there is no clear and understandable documentation available from Checkpoint.The book goes into detail and covers a lots of areas with examples, it cleared up a lot of issues very quickly.

Summary: EXCELLENT: Buy this book!!!!
Review: Without a doubt this book covers all of his information from phoneboy.com website on installation, maintenance and troubleshooting all aspects of FW-1 and EVEN MORE in the addendum that you cannot find anywhere else!Although it is not meant to be an "all-in-one" study guide to take the Checkpoint CCSA and CCSE test it amply takes up where Checkpoint is not. I'm a CCSE now and it helped me tremendously. It is a concise bible for Checkpoint implementation. Very well written and tons of information. Excellent reference book. 5 stars easily.
