RE: Border router security configuration

["Todd Gorman" <tgorman () gatehousenetworks com>]

Try this Cisco link.  It is a simple recipe, reasonably affective, and
offers good general advice.  Does not mention applying acls to the vty
(telnet) interfaces, but you may want to consider that as well (look up
"access-class" for instructions).  Hope it helps.
