It introduces readers to the different hardware models and covers the features associated with each. Installation and setup are covered in detail, as well as installation and configuration of the Check Point firewall on the Nokia system.
Readers will learn basic system administration, security, and monitoring before moving into advanced system administration concepts, as well as learning how to use Nokia's command line interface. Routing configurations and the different protocols involved are covered in detail, finishing off with a comprehensive discussion of the High-availability configuration that is Nokia's strength. The appendices include coverage of the UNIX basics which lie at the heart of the IPSO operating system and a review of the other packages available for Nokia systems (such as Perl and Bash).
The only book dedicated to coverage of the latest Nokia hardware and software offerings, from the SOHO appliances to the enterprise-class IP700 series, with an emphasis on administering and securing these systems.
Long-term market potential. The operating system referenced will be Nokia IPSO 3.4.1, which has an interface that has been specifically tailored to make upgrading to newer versions of IPSO simple and intuitive. In addition, the underlying interface is UNIX based, which has been a constant for over 30 years.

Much needed bookDec 20, 2002
By Ronald
I've been working with the Nokia Appliances and the IPSO OS, since they were first released. These boxes loaded with Check Point FW-1 provide top notch security. There are lots of CP books out there, and I was surprised that there wasn't a Nokia book also. I ordered this right when it came out, and the book has been a huge help to me. Its well written, comprehensive, and concise. The UNIX appendx at the end is very good, becaue you dont need to be a UNIX guru, but you do need to know the basics if you have to go beyond Voyager and get into the command line stuff.

Great book on how to prepare a Nokia box for Check PointDec 04, 2002
By R. Carreon
Everything you need to know to prepare a Nokia Box for Check Point is in here. The author uses a step by step approach to configuring your Nokia box and avoids the ugly details of Unix when he can. Finally, you don't have to be a Unix guru to deploy a super secure platform from which to run Check Point. Warning: This is not a Check Point book and it does not talk about secure network design or any of the other issues involved in network security.
Excellent reference book as well as study guide for the CertificationMar 04, 2008
By S. M. Pelland
"reader....."
I used this as my study guide for the Nokia Security Administrator test, as well as a reference book at work. I work a mixed bag of Checkpoint firewalls at my office and this helps when I have been off of a Nokia for a long time. If you are using this for your cert, you will need access to a Nokia appliance as well to practice...
