Solaris 10 System Administration Exam Prep: CX-310-200, Part I (2nd Edition)
Que | English | 2008-10-04 | ISBN-10: 0789737906 | 768 pages | PDF | 10.2 Mb

“Bill’s original Cert Prep guides were used throughout Sun’s service organization as the SEs studied for Certification. This was not mandated by Sun management but happened through word-of-mouth by those software engineers who had successfully passed the exam. In this new edition, Bill adds a chapter to explain the boot process (from POST to service initialization through SMF) on both SPARC and x86 systems. All chapters have been updated to reflect the Solaris 05/08 updates including detailed coverage of the x86 platform. This new guide is still the best source I know of to study for the exam.

WRITTEN BY A LEADING SOLARIS EXPERT!
Bill Calkins is owner and president of Pyramid Consulting, a computer training and consulting firm specializing in the implementation and administration of open systems. He works as a consultant with Sun Microsystems and has contributed extensively to the Solaris certification program and simulation technology. He also owns www.unixed.com, a website that provides online UNIX training materials. Bill has more than 20 years of experience in UNIX system administration, consulting, and training at more than 250 different companies and government agencies and has authored several books on Solaris.

In This Book You’ll Learn How To:
Install and configure the Solaris 10 operating environment on SPARC and x86/x64-based platforms
Set up, manage, back up, and recover file systems
Execute System Boot and Shutdown Procedures for SPARC and x86/x64-based systems
Manage services using the Service Management Facility (SMF)
Perform User and Security Administration

The A+ Exams Guide: Preparation Guide for the CompTIA Essentials, 220-602, 220-603, and 220-604 Exams

Christopher A. Crayton, "The A+ Exams Guide: Preparation Guide for the CompTIA Essentials, 220-602, 220-603, and 220-604 Exams"
Charles River Media | 2009 | ISBN: 1584505664 | 641 pages | PDF | 5,1 MB

Many A+ certification guides prepare aspiring PC technicians to pass the exam, but they don’t put test objectives in a “practical use” context. Other PC repair guides cover A+ exam objectives in a real-world setting, but they don’t prepare students well enough to pass the test and get certifi ed. The A+ Exams Guide, Second Edition solves this problem by combining a complete test preparation for the new A+ examinations [Essentials (aka 220-601), 220-602, 220-603, and 220-604] with a hands-on guide that refl ects how the A+ exam questions apply to real-world PC repair problems. The book teaches users how to install and troubleshoot hardware, and provides solutions to common operating system-related problems for machines running Microsoft Windows. Each chapter includes numerous diagrams and photographs, and explains PC repair techniques using easy-to-understand language and accessible terms. Additionally, the book’s companion CD-ROM includes hundreds of CertBlaster A+ practice questions for all four of the current A+ exams so you can test yourself as you work through the book. This is the only guide you need to pass the A+ exams and get certified!

IP Design for Mobile Networks

Mark Grayson, Kevin Shatzkamer, Scott Wainner, "IP Design for Mobile Networks"
Cisco Press | 2009 | ISBN: 158705826X, 1587059363 | 552 pages | PDF | 6,5 MB

As the cellular world and the Internet converge, mobile networks are transitioning from circuit to packet and the Internet Protocol (IP) is now recognized as the fundamental building block for all next-generation communication networks. The all-IP vision provides the flexibility to deliver cost-effective services and applications that meet the evolving needs of mobile users. RF engineers, mobile network designers, and system architects will be expected to have an understanding of IP fundamentals and how their role in delivering the end-to-end system is crucial for delivering the all-IP vision that makes the Internet accessible anytime, anywhere.

IP Design for Mobile Networks discusses proper IP design theory to effectively plan and implement your next-generation mobile network so that IP integrates all aspects of the network. The book outlines, from both a standards and a design theory perspective, both the current and target state of mobile networks, and the technology enablers that will assist the migration. This IP transition begins with function-specific migrations of specific network domains and ends with an end-to-end IP network for radio, transport, and service delivery. The book introduces many concepts to give you exposure to the key technology trends and decision points affecting today’s mobile operators.

The book is divided into three parts:

•Part I provides an overview of how IP is being integrated into mobile systems, including radio systems and cellular networks.
•Part II provides an overview of IP, the technologies used for transport and connectivity of today’s cellular networks, and how the mobile core is evolving to encompass IP technologies.
•Part III provides an overview of the end-to-end services network based on IP, including context awareness and services.
•Presents an overview of what mobile networks look like today—including protocols used, transport technologies, and how IP is being used for specific functions in mobile networks
•Provides an all-inclusive reference manual for IP design theory as related to the broader application of IP for mobile networks
•Imparts a view of upcoming trends in mobility standards to better prepare a network evolution plan for IP-based mobile networks
This book is part of the Networking Technology Series from Cisco Press®, which offers networking professionals valuable information for constructing efficient networks, understanding new technologies, and building successful careers.

Voice over IP Security

Patrick Park, "Voice over IP Security"
Cisco Press | 2008 | ISBN: 1587054698, 1587058200 | 384 pages | PDF | 3 MB

VoIP security issues are becoming increasingly serious because voice networks and services cannot be protected from recent intelligent attacks and fraud by traditional systems such as firewalls and NAT alone. After analyzing threats and recent patterns of attacks and fraud, consideration needs to be given to the redesign of secure VoIP architectures with advanced protocols and intelligent products, such as Session Border Controller (SBC). Another type of security issue is how to implement lawful interception within complicated service architectures according to government requirements.

Voice over IP Security focuses on the analysis of current and future threats, the evaluation of security products, the methodologies of protection, and best practices for architecture design and service deployment. This book not only covers technology concepts and issues, but also provides detailed design solutions featuring current products and protocols so that you can deploy a secure VoIP service in the real world with confidence.

Voice over IP Security gives you everything you need to understand the latest security threats and design solutions to protect your VoIP network from fraud and security incidents.

Patrick Park has been working on product design, network architecture design, testing, and consulting for more than 10 years. Currently Patrick works for Cisco® as a VoIP test engineer focusing on security and interoperability testing of rich media collaboration gateways. Before Patrick joined Cisco, he worked for Covad Communications as a VoIP security engineer focusing on the design and deployment of secure network architectures and lawful interception (CALEA). Patrick graduated from the Pusan National University in South Korea, where he majored in computer engineering.

Understand the current and emerging threats to VoIP networks

Learn about the security profiles of VoIP protocols, including SIP, H.323, and MGCP

Evaluate well-known cryptographic algorithms such as DES, 3DES, AES, RAS, digital signature (DSA), and hash function (MD5, SHA, HMAC)

Analyze and simulate threats with negative testing tools

Secure VoIP services with SIP and other supplementary protocols

Eliminate security issues on the VoIP network border by deploying an SBC

Configure enterprise devices, including firewalls, Cisco Unified Communications Manager, Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express, IP phones, and multilayer switches to secure VoIP network traffic

Implement lawful interception into VoIP service environments
