For a starting out point I would recommend Enhanced IP Services for Cisco
Networks by Donald Lee.  He does a great job explaining how cisco handles
IPSEC and IKE.

Next I would recommend Cryptography and Network Security - Principles and
Practice by William Stallings.  Probably the best free book I received from
cisco.  (Besides Small Business Networking for Dummies--I keep it smack dab
in the middle of all my cisco/networking books.  You should see peoples
faces when they come across it ;)

After that you should probably head to the RFC's: (God I'm starting to sound
like Howard :)
RFC2104 Hashing
RFC2402 AH
RFC2406 IPSec ESP
RCF2405
RFC2408 ISAKMP
and a bunch more....

Have fun

Subject: IPSec, IKE, VPN study resources?


Group,
   Can anyone out there help me out. I am trying to find resources for 
study. I want to get learn as much as possible about IPSec and VPN 
technology. I would like to see if anyone knows of some good resources to 
learn more about this kind of stuff  -IPSec tunnel and transport modes, 
Security Associations, ISAKMP\OAKLEY process, The Diffie-Hellman algorithm, 
and ...

What I would really like to find is a book that gets right into the guts of 
it and goes through it inside and out. I'd also like to learn the  history, 
and where the forefront is trying to push this technology.
If anyone knows of any resources they have found helpfull I would really be 
gratefull for your response.
Thanks in advance guys-

>>>Brian
