Book Reviews of Cisco PIX Firewalls : Configure, Manage, & Troubleshoot

Book Review: Good Reference book
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a good reference book if you are using version 7 or below of the Pix firewall. Most of the syntax is geared for v7. There are a few slight deferences in v6.3 command syntax that aren't covered. IE generating keys for ssh use.
Overall the book seems to cover all the basics and the more advanced topics like failover configurations and firewall contexts (virtual firewalls).
It should serve well as a Pix certification resource although I haven't used it as such.

Summary of Cisco PIX Firewalls : Configure, Manage, & Troubleshoot

Cisco PIX Firewall is the world's most used network firewall, protecting internal networks from unwanted intrusions and attacks. Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) are the means by which authorized users are allowed through PIX Firewalls. Network engineers and security specialists must constantly balance the need for air-tight security (Firewalls) with the need for on-demand access (VPNs). In this book, Umer Khan, author of the #1 best selling PIX Firewall book, provides a concise, to-the-point blueprint for fully integrating these two essential pieces of any enterprise network. It is fully current with the newest PIX Software Version 7 and is appropriate for the new CSPFA exam covering PIX Software Version 7.
