Book Description
This book contains 36 chapters and is structured to facilitate readers to grasp concepts, understand implementation procedures, learn command syntax, configuration files and daemons involved, and understand basic troubleshooting. The 36 chapters are divided into three key areas: UNIX Fundamentals, HP-UX System Administration and HP-UX Network Administration. These chapters cover topics that are on HP’s recommended certification courses – UNIX Fundamentals, System and Network Administration I, System and Network Administration II, and HP-UX for Experienced UNIX System Administrators – as well as on official exam objectives list. 1. UNIX Fundamentals (chapters 1 to 6, and 22) covers the basics of UNIX and HP-UX. Most information is not specific to a particular UNIX flavor, rather, includes general UNIX concepts, file manipulation and security techniques, vi editor, shell and awk programming, basic commands and other essential topics. Unlike many other similar books, a chapter on shell scripting is presented after covering HP-UX System Administration area. This is done purposely to provide readers with practical examples based on the knowledge they gain from UNIX Fundamentals and HP-UX System Administration chapters. 2. HP-UX System Administration (chapters 7 to 21) covers the HP-UX-specific system administration concepts and topics including server hardware information and mass storage stack; virtualization technologies and HP-UX installation; software and patch management; user and group administration; LVM and file system administration; EVFS and swap management; system shutdown and startup procedures; kernel configuration and management techniques; backup and restore functions; printer and print request management, job automation and process control; and system logging and performance monitoring. 3. HP-UX Network Administration (chapters 23 to 36) covers HP-UX network and security administration concepts and topics such as OSI and TCP/IP reference models; network hardware overview and LAN interface administration; IP subnetting and routing techniques; basic network testing and troubleshooting; internet services and sendmail; time synchronization (NTP) and resource sharing (NFS, AutoFS and CIFS) services; naming (DNS, NIS and LDAP) services and automated installation techniques; and high-availability concepts and system security tools and practices. Throughout the book figures, tables, screen shots and examples are given for explanation purposes. The book includes 863 exam review questions with answers.

Book Description
Protecting systems within an enterprise has proven as important to overall security as securing the enterprise perimeter. Over the past few years, the number of vulnerabilities stemming from weaknesses in applications and operating systems has grown dramatically. In direct correlation with the number of weaknesses discovered, the number of viruses, worms, and security attacks has also exploded across the Internet. To add to the typical virus issues that businesses have had to confront, there are also malicious programs infiltrating organizations today in the form of spyware and adware. Prevent day-zero attacks Enforce acceptable-use policies Develop host-IPS project implementation plans Evaluate management hierarchy installation options, including single-server, multiserver, and built-in database usage Learn about CSA agents and manual and scripted installation options Understand policy components and custom policy creation Use and filter information from CSA event logs Troubleshoot CSA deployments with agent and management server logs and built-in troubleshooting tools Protecting systems where the private data and intellectual property resides is no longer considered a function of perimeter defense systems but has instead become the domain of endpoint protection software, such as host Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS). Cisco® Security Agent (CSA) is the Cisco Systems® host-IPS solution. CSA provides the security controls that corporations need to deal with threats to host and desktop computing resources. Advanced Host Intrusion Prevention with CSA is a practical guide to getting the most out of CSA deployments. Through methodical explanation of advanced CSA features and concepts, this book helps ease the fears of security administrators seeking to install and configure a host IPS. This book explains in detail such topics as installation of the management servers, installation of the agents for mass deployment, granular agent policy creation, advanced policy creation, real-world troubleshooting techniques, and best practices in implementation methodology. This guide also provides a practical installation framework taken from the actual installation and support experience of the authors. This book helps you implement host IPS appropriately, giving your organization better protection from the various threats that are impacting your business while at the same time enabling you to comply with various legal requirements put forth in such legislation as HIPAA, SOX, SB1386, and VISA PCI.
