Cisco Secure Firewall Services Module (FWSM)

Best practices for securing networks with FWSM

Ray Blair, CCIE® No. 7050
Arvind Durai, CCIE No. 7016

The Firewall Services Module (FWSM) is a high-performance
stateful-inspection firewall that integrates into the Cisco® 6500 switch
and 7600 router chassis. The FWSM monitors traffic flows using
application inspection engines to provide a strong level of network
security. The FWSM defines the security parameter and enables the
enforcement of security policies through authentication, access control
lists, and protocol inspection. The FWSM is a key component to anyone
deploying network security.

Cisco Secure Firewall Services Module (FWSM) covers all aspects of the
FWSM. The book provides a detailed look at how the FWSM processes
information, as well as installation advice, configuration details,
recommendations for network integration, and reviews of operation and
management. This book provides you with a single source that
comprehensively answers how and why the FWSM functions as it does. This
information enables you to successfully deploy the FWSM and gain the
greatest functional benefit from your deployment. Practical examples
throughout show you how other customers have successfully deployed the
FWSM.

By reading this book, you will learn how the FWSM functions, the
differences between the FWSM and the ASA Security Appliance, how to
implement and maintain the FWSM, the latest features of the FWSM, and
how to configure common installations.

Ray Blair, CCIE® No. 7050, is a consulting systems architect who has
been with Cisco for more than 8 years, working primarily on security and
large network designs. He has 20 years of experience in designing,
implementing, and maintaining networks that have included nearly all
networking technologies. Mr. Blair maintains three CCIE certifications
in Routing and Switching, Security, and Service Provider. He is also a
CNE and a CISSP.

Arvind Durai, CCIE No. 7016, is an advanced services technical leader
for Cisco. His primary responsibility has been in supporting major Cisco
customers in the enterprise sector. One of his focuses has been on
security, and he has authored several white papers and design guides in
various technologies. Mr. Durai maintains two CCIE certifications, in
Routing and Switching and Security.

- Understand modes of operation, security levels, and contexts for the
FWSM
- Configure routing protocols and the host-chassis to support the FWSM
- Deploy ACLs and Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA)
- Apply class and policy maps
- Configure multiple FWSMs for failover support
- Configure application and protocol inspection
- Filter traffic using filter servers, ActiveX, and Java filtering
functions
- Learn how IP multicast and the FWSM interact
- Increase performance with firewall load balancing
- Configure IPv6 and asymmetric routing
- Mitigate network attacks using shunning, anti-spoofing, connection
limits, and timeouts
- Examine network design, management, and troubleshooting best
practices

This security book is part of the Cisco Press® Networking Technology
series. Security titles from Cisco Press help networking professionals
secure critical data and resources, prevent and mitigate network
attacks, and build end-to-end self-defending networks.

Apple’s new Xcode 3 is the most powerful Mac development suite ever
created. In Xcode 3 Unleashed, renowned Mac developer Fritz Anderson has
written the definitive guide to making the most of Xcode 3 to build any
Macintosh or iPhone application.

Anderson leads you through a simple project that covers the entire Xcode

most of Apple’s performance tools, led by the deep and powerful Shark
statistical profiler.

Systematically updated for Xcode 3.x, this is a comprehensive revision
of Anderson’s previous bestseller, Step into Xcode. Its breadth, depth,
and practical focus will make it indispensable to every Mac developer:

Scripted GUI Testing with Ruby (c) by Pragmatic Bookshelf

The type of the release is: eBook
In the PDF format with ISBN: 1934356182 and Pub Date: August 15, 2008
The size of the release is: 01 disks x 2.88mb
And released on: 09/15/2008

Scripted GUI Testing with Ruby is a practical, quick-moving tutorial
based on real life, and real-world GUI applications.
Right out of the gate you’ll start working with code to drive a
desktop GUI. You’ll discover the kinds of gotchas and edge cases that
don’t exist in simple, toy programs. As you add more tests, you’ll learn
how to organize your test code and write lucid examples. The result is a
series of "smoke tests" team will run on Continuous Integration servers.
Next, we’ll explore a variety of different testing tips and tricks.
You’ll employ a series of increasingly random and punishing test monkeys
to try to crash programs. Table-driven techniques will show you how to
check dozens of different input combinations. See how to use longer
acceptance tests (in the form of stories) to represent the way a typical
customer would use your program.
The book uses examples from Windows, OS X, and cross-platform Java
desktop programs as well as Web applications. You’ll develop test
scripts in Ruby; you don’t need to be a Ruby expert, but basic comfort
with the language will be helpful.
