I passed MCNS 2 this morning and did the CCIE Security written beta last friday. The CCIE written wasn't as tough as I expected, though I might not pass it anyway. I tried to compare the way IPsec implemented and configured in Cisco router and Win2K. Enhanced IP Security for Cisco network did very good job in introducing me to IPsec and CBAC. Other book I used was Designing Cisco Network and PIX firewall documentation at CCO: http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/iaabu/pix/pix_v52/index.htm. These three references cover most of the stuff but not everything. Apparently NetRanger/Cisco Centri Firewall has been removed from MCNS objectives. My plan is to take CCIE security and CCSE however I have no access to PIX at the moment. Is anyone out there know if there is any online labs like www.ccbootcamp.com but specialising in security. Thanks for any info.
