An excelent book! My intention for reading this book is that at work we
people who are out on the road who need access to information on our network.
A VPN seemed like the solution.
This book contains a lot of details about many different ways of creating
VPNs. Unlike many books the introduction chapter is a must read. It discusses
issues that must be planned for when building a VPN. It also has a short
intro of many different protocols. This contains enough information to make
decisions about which software is most appropriate for your needs.
Chapters for different VPNs follow. I read the one that applied to my choice
(IPSec). It contains detailed explainations on how IPSec works. The book
is not a HOWTO, they are available on line. URLs are provided.
The only thing I was a little disapointed that it didn't tell how to interact with Win2k/WinXP systems.
I recommend it to anyone thinking about setting up a VPN.
