Enhanced IP Services for Cisco Networks

The author provides a useful and instructive breakdown of each enhanced
service: what it is, why you need it, how it works, how to deploy it, how to
validate it. This book offers a practical guide to implementing IPsec, the
IOS Firewall, and IOS Intrusion Detection System. Also included are advanced
routing principles and quality of service features that focus on
cryptography fully explains the science that makes VPNs possible. Rather
than being another routing book, this is a guide to improving your network's
capabilities by understanding and using the sophisticated features available
to you in Cisco's IOS software.
