A well written, information packed resource book on VPNs

This book is a well written book, filled with a lot of information on VPNs. The author has illustrated many VPN concepts in a very simple easy to understand manner. The book also illustrates so many other requirements with VPNs, not always discussed in other places. Usually you only hear about IPSec, L2TP or something else. While the author doesn't go into exacting minute detail on how to setup, say PPTP, or a Cisco PIX, [my only fault with the book, but I guess you could use the installation manuals for that] the benefit is that after reading and studying the fundamental concepts presented, you will be able to install and maintain any VPN technology. Then after that, the author presents so many security topics effecting VPNs. You could tell this wasn't a rushed project. I think a credit to McGraw-hill

A good IT book!!!

It is the first book concerns with the hottest topic---VPN. I think it will be very useful for most IT engineers!!!
