Hi,

I would like to have your book recommendation about firewalls and
ips
theory (not how to use a vendors fw) to get the deep knowledge.
Cause day by day though you use-manage the firewall , you can also
get
far way the insides. There were limited books about them at old
times
but now adays you may know some which are great ( i dont wanna spend
my money for nothing).

Regards


This should get you going, it starts with protocols and stack
components, then gets on to one of the major firewalls:
