Description

Firewalls are one of the most complicated devices of a network to configure, manage and troubleshoot because every action affects the entire network, its security and all processes. A firewall defines security for a business at the perimeter level. Thus, Network Administrators must be able to effectively manage the firewall to ensure the IT infrastructure is protected against unauthorized access and potential malicious traffic from outside.
