Identify, analyze, and resolve current and potential network security problems?
* Learn diagnostic commands, common problems and resolutions, best practices, and case studies covering a wide array of Cisco network security troubleshooting scenarios and products
* Refer to common problems and resolutions in each chapter to identify and solve chronic issues or expedite escalation of problems to the Cisco TAC/HTTS
* Flip directly to the techniques you need by following the modular chapter organization
* Isolate the components of a complex network problem in sequence
* Master the troubleshooting techniques used by TAC/HTTS security support engineers to isolate problems and resolve them on all four security domains: IDS/IPS, AAA, VPNs, and firewalls
With the myriad Cisco?

security products available today, you need access to a comprehensive source of defensive troubleshooting strategies to protect your enterprise network. Cisco Network Security Troubleshooting Handbook can single-handedly help you analyze current and potential network security problems and identify viable solutions, detailing each step until you reach the best resolution.
Through its modular design, the book allows you to move between chapters and sections to find just the information you need. Chapters open with an in-depth architectural look at numerous popular Cisco security products and their packet flows, while also discussing potential third-party compatibility issues. By following the presentation of troubleshooting techniques and tips, you can observe and analyze problems through the eyes of an experienced Cisco TAC or High-Touch Technical Support (HTTS) engineer or determine how to escalate your case to a TAC/HTTS engineer.
Part I starts with a solid overview of troubleshooting tools and methodologies.
In Part II, the author explains the features of Cisco ASA and Cisco PIX?version 7.0 security platforms, Firewall Services Module (FWSM), and Cisco IOS?firewalls.
Part III covers troubleshooting IPsec Virtual Private Networks (IPsec VPN) on Cisco IOS routers, Cisco PIX firewalls with embedded VPN functionalities, and the Cisco 3000 Concentrator. Troubleshooting tools and techniques on the Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) framework are discussed thoroughly on routers, Cisco PIX firewalls, and Cisco VPN 3000 concentrators in Part IV.
Part IV also covers troubleshooting Cisco Secure ACS on Windows, the server-side component of the AAA framework. IDS/IPS troubleshooting on IDS/IPS appliances, IDSM-2 blade, and NM-CIDS blade on Cisco IOS routers are covered inPart V.

In Part VI, the author examines the troubleshooting techniques for VPN/Security Management Solution (VMS) tools used for managing products from all four security domains in greater detail: IDS/IPS, AAA, VPNs, and firewalls.
Cisco Network Security Troubleshooting Handbook prepares you to troubleshoot your network’s security devices and presents step-by-step procedures for tackling issues that arise, so that you can protect your network.
This security book is part of the Cisco Press?Networking Technology Series. Security titles from Cisco Press help networking professionals secure critical data and resources, prevent and mitigate network attacks, and build end-to-end self-defending networks.

Cisco.Press.Voice.over.IP.Fundamentals.2nd.Edition.Jul.2006.eBook-BBL
Title: Voice over IP Fundamentals (2nd Edition)
Author: Jonathan Davidson / James Peters / Manoj Bhatia / Satish Kalidindi / Sudipto Mukherjee
Publisher: Cisco Press
Edition: 2 edition (July 27, 2006)
ISBN: 1587052571
Format: PDF

The authors of Voice over IP Fundamentals–three packet-voice specialists at Cisco Systems–initiate their exploration of next-generation technologies for supporting conversations across large distances: the switched telephone network as implemented on large (intercontinental) and small (building and enterprise) scales. They then point out problems with the old way of doing things and illuminate the standards and regulatory conditions that have made Internet telephony attractive. Signaling System 7 (SS7) gets particularly insightful coverage, with ample graphical support for the clear, fact-rich, example-laden prose.
The authors do a great service for readers by breaking packet telephony into its component technologies and explaining each one carefully. Coverage of the various protocols that enable voice over IP, particularly H.323 and Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), is simultaneously clear and deep. The same goes for media gateway protocols and various schemes for translating sounds into digital signals and back again, while retaining maximum clarity. There’s even some practical material; concluding chapters diagram Cisco router configurations for voice traffic and flesh out solutions with case studies.
You’ll like this book if you need to implement a voice over IP system and know more about IP than you do about traditional voice telecommunications. The patient and detailed explanations of traditional telephony concepts and voice over IP protocols will mesh nicely with your existing data communications knowledge, enabling you to make wise design and product decisions.
–David Wall
Covered topics: The Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN), signaling specifications (including Bell System, ISDN, and Signaling System 7), the basics of Internet Protocol (IP), modulation and compression of voice, Quality of Service (QoS), H.323, Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), and gateway protocols. Business considerations of Internet telephony are also addressed.

Introduction
Cisco offers two options for obtaining the CCNA certification:

Pass Exam 640-801 OR Pass Exam 640-811 and Exam 640-821
While you can use this TestOut product to prepare for either exam, the product is geared towards passing the single exam. We recommend you study all of the material and take the single exam option rather than taking two exams.

Before you start this course, you should have completed the following course or have equivalent networking experience:

CompTIA’s Network +

The problem, generally speaking, with books about Cisco Systems data-networking equipment is that they’re organized around passing the Cisco certification exams, and that kind of organization differs from what working professionals need. Alternately, Cisco Switching Black Book gets right to the point, emphasizing practicality over theory, and how-to procedures over academic platitudes. If you want to know how to reconfigure ports on static virtual local area networks (VLANs) on a Catalyst 5000, the command to enter and the router’s response are right there on a single page. The book also usually points out pitfalls–a quick warning such as “If you do A, don’t forget to do B” calls immediate attention to problems other books might explain with multiple pages and diagrams.

That’s not to say that this book is all recipes. There is background and explanatory material in the “In Depth” sections that follow the “Immediate Solutions” segments in which the snappy procedures appear. Some readers might like to see more frequent links between the procedures and the relevant background material (such as “For more information on what’s happening here, refer to…”), but the omission is not a big deal. Those who read the material will find that it provides decent preparation for parts of the Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) exam, despite its general-interest design. –David Wall

Topics covered: Configuration of local and wide area network (LAN and WAN) switching equipment sold by Cisco Systems; more specifically, switching as it applies to virtual local area networks (VLANs), IP multicasting, multilayer switching, and LightStream switches; Hot Standby Routing Protocol (HSRP), Internetwork Operating System (IOS) variations among Cisco products, and troubleshooting. A brief but praiseworthy appendix offers some advice on freelance Cisco consulting.
