Enhanced IP Services for Cisco Networks
A practical resource for deploying quality of service, security, IP routing and VPN services.Enhanced IP Services for Cisco Networks is a guide to the new enabling and advanced IOS services that build more scalable, intelligent, and secure networks. Networking professionals will gain an understanding of services that help networks support more users, more locations, and more applications. You will learn the technical details necessary to deploy Quality of Service and VPN technologies, as well as improved security and advanced routing features. These services will allow you to extend the network to new frontiers securely, protect your network from attacks, and enhance network transport with application-level prioritization.Donald Lee (Donn Lee) provides a useful and instructive breakdown of each enhanced service: what it is, why you need it, how it works, how to deploy it, how to validate it. This book offers a practical guide to implementing IPsec, the IOS Firewall, and IOS Intrusion Detection System. Also included are advanced routing principles and Quality of Service features that focus on improving the capability of your network. A good briefing on cryptography fully explains the science that makes VPNs possible. Rather than being another routing book, this is a guide to improving your network’s capabilities by understanding and using the sophisticated features available to you in Cisco’s IOS software.
- Understand VPN security concepts: confidentiality, integrity, origin authentication, non-repudiation, anti-replay, perfect forward secrecy
- Deploy Quality of Service technologies to protect your mission-critical applications
- Find out how IPsec technology works and how to configure it in IOS
- Learn how to set up a router as a firewall and intrusion detection system
- Gain efficient use of your IP address space with NAT, VLSM, IP unnumbered
- Solve real-world routing problems with redistribution, route filtering, summarization, policy routing
- Enable Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) security services with RADIUS and TACACS+ servers
This book is a part of the Cisco Press Core Series that offers networking professionals valuable information for constructing efficient networks, understanding new technologies, and building successful careers.

That would be my pick too. That was what I read for a crash course in
IOS VPN the night before I did a VPN consulting gig with no practical
experience whatever.
Saved my bacon.

Enhanced IP Services by Donald Lee. It has an excellent chapters on
IPSec configuration.

I attended an IPT Seminar at Cisco UK just before Christmas, and I asked the
presenter if he knew what would be the best material to study for this. His
reply was that he was acting as a technical reviewer for Ciscopress for that
very book, he then showed me some of the chapter that he was currently
reviewing.
So to sum up some time soon. Otherwise Ciscopress do an IP Quality of
Service book and there are a couple of Chapters in Enhanced IP Services for
Cisco Networks.

The earlier suggestion for the former. Enhanced IP Services by Donald Lee
for the latter.
While the first book has a chapter on IPSec, the Lee book is much better.
> Enhanced IP Services by Donald Lee for the latter.
I’ll second that. I got thrown into the fire on a consulting gig where
they had VPN all over the place, I had no book or practical knowledge of
IPSec. Read the IPSec section of this book several times, and I was
very prepared.
By the way, Enhanced IP Services by Donald Lee has some EXCELLENT chapters
on IPSec. If you read this book and can’t get basic IPSec up and running,
you need to look for a different career! <g>
> Does any one know really good VPN Book for Cisco router
Enhanced IP Services is a good one to start with. It’s not a VPN only
book, but covers the topic of IPSec, ISAKMP, etc. very well.

I really don’t think that “you’re in good shape” means that you’re actually
ready to take the exam. In fact, Hansang has posted his recommended reading
list in the past… hmmm… I think it’s here somewhere… aha!
