The best one I've read!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
Overall speaking Firewalls Complete is the most complete book I ever read. The author provides a lot of information you can possibly find in a single book. Firewall concepts, encryption, and an outline of a list of firewalls are included. The CD itself is worth the price, as it brings several demos and few evaluation copies of the main firewalls available on the market.
Excellent book is teachable material

The product reviews alone are worth the price. Saved alot of eval time. Also, I was able to use this book to train new admins as the book answered alot of their questions for me, again saving me time. There seems to be a good balance between intro and detail. Those who need a network policy will find a good template included. Just fill in the blanks. You need to put some thought into it, but the auther has outlined the way for you. The author has sporadically placed helpful details through the book that are technically valuable, such as Claunch's patch for the TIS toolkit. Another techtip section is the small section on testing your FW setup. This was a good section to pass on to intro admins who are still learning that testing saves them. One recommendation I might make is that the author place info like this in an easy lookup appendex for future reference. A valuable book, worth the price.
Very complete indeed!

This is the only book I know covering the 15+ main firewall products available on the market. The CD brings many demos and evaluations of these firewalls, which helped me a lot on narrowing down my choices. Very complete!

The book provides a comprehensive overview of firewalls and security schemes as well as a good overview of the main firewall products available.
A great firewall reference book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
The book is ideal for those in the process of evaluating firewall products. Chapter 14 alone, which reviews more than 15 firewall products provides you with a rundown of the main products, its features and limitations. The many demos and evaluation copies of various firewalls enables you to test them out before deciding on anyone. There are some very good whitepapers included there and a great multimedia presentation of FireWall-1, from Check Point.
