Written by key members of Juniper Network's ScreenOS development team,
this one-of-a-kind Cookbook helps you troubleshoot secure networks that
run ScreenOS firewall appliances. Scores of recipes address a wide range
of security issues, provide step-by-step solutions, and include
discussions of why the recipes work, so you can easily set up and keep
ScreenOS systems on track.
ScreenOS Cookbook gives you real-world fixes, techniques, and
configurations that save time -- not hypothetical situations out of a
textbook. The book comes directly from the experience of engineers who
have seen and fixed every conceivable ScreenOS network topology, from
small branch office firewalls to appliances for large core enterprise
and government, to the heavy duty protocol driven service provider
network. Its easy-to-follow format enables you to find the topic and
specific recipe you need right away and match it to your network and
security issue.

firewall network secure and operating smoothly, no book matches
ScreenOS Cookbook.
