• Almost Perfect....
05 January, 2007
I bought this book because I needed to learn how to use the PIX Firewall for my company. My experience with configuring firewalls (Or any Cisco device) is extremely limited, so I needed a basic book that explains how to configure a PIX firewall (what the commands do, how traffic flows, and the consequences of your actions when configuring a firewall)
This book has helped me greatly in understanding how the PIX firewall works. After reading through it and using it as a study aid for my job, it has given me the knowledge to know what I need to look for when configuring my PIX Firewall.
Unfortunately, this book has many grammatical errors that leave you confused as to what the author is trying to describe. Also, alot of the errors make you question the validity and integrity of the author's knowledge on some of the configuration examples.
Example: The author has diagrams that lay out the network design of certain scenarios, using the diagram to explain what a company's public IP address is. Unfortunately no where on the diagram does it show the public IP address. In fact, in some examples, the IP address is completely different from what the author is describing.
In summary...
If you can except that there are going to be grammatical errors and possibly even conflicting examples described in the book. Then this book will help you greatly.
After reading this book and using it to take notes and actually 'study' for it, it has helped me greatly in understanding how to configure my PIX.
Personally.... I wish there was a book that simply layed out the commands needed to configure your PIX firewall a specific way. I'd rather get the firewall configured now, and then understand how it works later.

Its contents is the best I was able to find for a relatively novice. It covers all areas with examples and diagrams that complement the explanations. A must have for newbies.
