"While Nokia is perhaps most recognized for its leadership in the mobile
phone market, they have successfully demonstrated their knowledge of the
Internet security appliance market and its customers requirements."
Chris Christiansen, Vice President, Internet Infrastructure and
Security Software, IDC.

Syngress has a long history of publishing
market-leading books for system administrators and security
professionals on commercial security products, particularly Firewall and
Virtual Private Network (VPN) appliances from Cisco, Check Point,
Juniper, SonicWall, and Nokia (see related titles for sales histories).
The Nokia Firewall, VPN, and IPSO Configuration Guide will be the only
book on the market covering the all-new Nokia Firewall/VPN Appliance
suite. Nokia Firewall/VPN appliances are designed to protect and extend
the network perimeter. According to IDC research, Nokia Firewall/VPN
Appliances hold the #3 worldwide market-share position in this space
behind Cisco and Juniper/NetScreen. IDC estimated the total Firewall/VPN
market at $6 billion in 2007, and Nokia owns 6.6% of this market.
Nokia's primary customers for security appliances are Mid-size to Large
enterprises who need site-to-site connectivity and Mid-size to Large
enterprises who need remote access connectivity through
enterprise-deployed mobile devices. Nokia appliances for this market are
priced form $1,000 for the simplest devices (Nokia IP60) up to $60,0000
for large enterprise- and service-provider class devices (like the Nokia
IP2450 released in Q4 2007). While the feature set of such a broad
product range obviously varies greatly, all of the appliances run on the
same operating system: Nokia IPSO (IPSO refers to Ipsilon Networks, a
company specializing in IP switching acquired by Nokia in 1997. The
definition of the acronym has little to no meaning for customers.) As a
result of this common operating system across the product line, The
Nokia Firewall, VPN, and IPSO Configuration Guide will be an essential
reference to users of any of these products. Users manage the Nokia IPSO
(which is a Linux variant, specifically designed for these appliances)
through a Web interface called Nokia Network Voyager or via a powerful
Command Line Interface (CLI). Coverage within the book becomes
increasingly complex relative to the product line. The Nokia Firewall,
VPN, and IPSO Configuration Guide and companion Web site will provide
seasoned network administrators and security professionals with the
in-depth coverage and step-by-step walkthroughs they require to properly
secure their network perimeters and ensure safe connectivity for remote
users. The book contains special chapters devoted to mastering the
complex Nokia IPSO command line, as well as tips and tricks for taking
advantage of the new "ease of use" features in the Nokia Network Voyager
Web interface. In addition, the companion Web site offers downloadable
video walkthroughs on various installation and troubleshooting tips from
the authors.
