Max Power: Check Point Firewall Performance Optimization

GREAT book, Tim Hall shares his wealth of knowledge from many years of hands-on practical experience and troubleshooting. Great way to accelerate your own knowledge and skills set. I would say that you need a good baseline of Check Point technology fundamentals to get the most out of the book.

Great book if you work with Check Point products. The author goes deep into concepts and teaches complex subjects in an easy to digest fashion.

Very informative! Mr. hall explains topics with exceptional detail. This has helped a ton in my career.

Really good resource. Very easy to understand and comprehensive.

Great information for your Check Point environment.

I really enjoyed this book. If you work with checkpoint firewalls, this book is a must have.

This is now my goto resource for all things Checkpoint. It covers real world advice on hardware / settings / BIOS Tuning (For Open Server Hardware), Diagnosing issues (and finding some you didn't even know you had!) / Policy tuning / Nat Optimisation / VPN Algorithm recommendations, Differences from R77.30 and R80.10 including it's new Love or Hate GUI.There's even a section of external influences to look out for on your switches.I could go on.. But basically it's a must buy book for making the most of your Checkpoint investment.

I have just purchased and started reading this book, One thing i would like to mention about the paper back printing is not very cool. Other than that you need a partner account or business account to read the SK's articles mentioned in the further reading section so get ready for that. Other than that i am on the chapter 1 so can not put more on anything as of yet. I will hopefully present my review few weeks further down the line. Thanks in advanceImran Dorset South Coast UK

Very good source of information about the inner workings of Check Point. By far better than the stuff you learn while studying for CCSA and CCSE.

It‘s a must have for CP firewall engineers. Great to use to optimize performance. The book includes helpful undocumented commands.
