Rating: Summary: Exactly on the mark! Review: This book is exactly "on" regarding the SECUR exam. It is definitely worth adding to the library. It is clear, concise and right to the point. Several concepts such as character and interface mode and the Intrusion Detection System (IDS) on the router, which are critical to understand for certification, were picture perfect along with the other components of this book. I don't believe I have seen a more direct and to the point explanation on IPSec than the one contained inside the pages of this book. Even if you are not pursuing certification, this book will help clear up misconceptions regarding security and the IOS router with the firewall feature set.It is a "keeper".

Rating: Summary: Don't waste your money! Review: This book reads like it was written by a 12 year old. I only needed to read the first chapter and decided to return it. It is filled with incorrect information and incorrect test answers. The security suggestions are rediculous, and not really useful or manageable in a business environment (One Time Passwords, VPN to the Desktop). Don't waste your money on this book.

Rating: Summary: Well worth the time... Review: This book was great. It was right on for the Cisco Secur exam (which is still fresh in my mind). Further, I have a much better understanding of IPSec now, along with Cisco Security features. This book gave me more than just the right answers to a test. Another reviewer said that OTP and VPN were "not really useful or manageable in a business environment". Obviously anyone with security experience knows that is 100% incorrect. Get the book, you won't be disappointed...
Rating: Summary: Highly Recommended Review: This book was very helpful, informative, and a pleasure to read. Plus, I passed the exam. A+
