Network security: Practical examples solved to be introduced in network security

Abstract

The practical guide is intended for the students from FCIM (Faculty of Computers, Informatics and Microelectronics) and FET (Faculty of Electronics and Telecommunications) who study the Networks Security course and aims to deepen their knowledge at seminars and for laboratory work. The guide materials will assist you in developing the skills necessary to do the following: describe the security threats facing modern network infrastructures; secure Cisco devices; secure the network infrastructure; implement AAA on CISCO routers using a local router database and external AAA servers; mitigate threats to Cisco routers and networks using access control lists (ACLs); implement secure network design, management, and reporting; implement the Cisco IOS firewall feature set; mitigate common Layer 2 attacks; implement a site-to-site VPN; implement a remote access VPN. Guide is focused on creating the global problem solvers needed to build, scale, secure, and defend the networks that used in our daily lives. The need for well-trained network security specialists continues to grow at an exponentials rate.
