Very usefull book for admins! While I learned quite a bit of good information, the second section (Building Firewalls) is where I personally learned the most. The chapters in this section discuss topics like packet filtering, firewall architectures and design, proxy systems and bastion hosts.


An informative, well-put together book that can be used as a reference and >in some sections, a tutorial as well.


The book also talks about reasons for having (or not having) a firewall,security issues and near the end of the book, what to do if the site you're protecting with a firewall does get broken into.
