Hi Kyle,

In short, NIPS is a combination of a firewall and IDS. 
An IDS will only detect intrusions whereas the NIPS will also take
actions on the intrusions detected based on policies. 

Read this goop article for an intro to NIPS

Subject: Hi, I want to study IPS

Hi, 
My name is Kyle and developer.

I'm developing a NIPS(Network Intrusion Prevention System).
I wonder what is different between NIDS and NIPS.
Where can I acquire documents or anything that explain NIPS.
Please let me know that.

Have a nice day!!!

PS: I'm sorry for poor English.
