This book provides network managers, LAN administrators and small
business operators with all they need to know to ‘interconnect’
multiple locations or travelling employees that need to access a
single location. The operation and utilization of virtual private
networks is discussed both in theory and practicality, covering the
technical aspects associated with encryption and digital
certificates as well as the manner by which readers can create VPNs
using readily available products from Microsoft, Cisco, Checkpoint
and possibly other vendors.
The author was among the first to write about the concept of
virtual private networking in a series of articles published over
five years ago, and in the intervening years this has become a very
hot topic — with the technology being increasing deployed by
companies.
Virtual Private Networking, by Gilbert Held, covers the technology
and the theory, but also shows readers, through numerous examples,
‘how to use ‘ the technology.
