Cisco Security certifications focus on the growing need of knowledgeable network professionals who can implement complete security solutions. Cisco ASA Specialist takes your knowledge and skills on configuring, maintaining, and operating Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance 5500 series to the next level.
Cisco ASA Specialist Boot Camp adds depth to the existing Cisco-developed hands-on labs for Firewallv1.0 and VPNv1.0. VPNv1.0 takes over where Firewallv1.0 leaves off, covering VPN topics of the Adaptive Security Appliance.
Koenig's advanced hands-on labs, delivered on enhanced topology designed to simulate a typical production network, guide you through exercises such as executing general maintenance commands, configuring ACLs, configuring VPN on the Security Appliance, managing digital certificates for IPSec and SSL VPNs (ASA specific), deep packet inspection and using the 5510 in the SOHO environment.
Koenig labs utilize ASA 5510 security appliances, though this course and lab content is applicable across the ASA and PIX families of security appliances. Cisco ASA Specialist Boot Camp covers the features and syntax of Cisco Security Appliance Software v8.0.
