Certification Training Software

Here's what you'll learn in each video of the Cisco CCNA Security - Exam-Pack 640-553: IINS Series:
Video 1 - "Welcome to CCNA Security: Cisco Certification and Getting the Most from This Series" - With every new program, there is typically an included "Read Me First" text file. In the same sense, consider this nugget the "Watch Me First" of the series. This nugget presents the strategies you can use for getting the most from the series, changes to the Cisco certification program, and the ideal CCNA Security lab environment.Video 2 - "Welcome to CCNA Security: Understanding the Threats" - It's impossible to defend against something you don't understand. In this nugget, Jeremy defines the goal behind having a secure network and the categories of intruders and attacks.
Video 3 - "Welcome to CCNA Security: Understanding the Threats, Part 2" - Jeremy continues defining the properties of a secure network by discussing many of the network attacks you can face and a general mitigation strategy. In addition, Jeremy discusses the components behind the Cisco Self-Defending Network system.

Video 4 - "Foundation Router Security: Using SDM to Lock Down Your Router" - The Cisco Security Device Manager (SDM) is a powerful graphic interface you can use to manage your router and perform complex tasks with the click of a mouse button. This nugget walks through the process of configuring your router to support Cisco SDM and using the SDM to perform a security audit or one-step lockdown of your device.
Video 5 - "Foundation Router Security: Implementing Secure Router Management" - One of the first areas of security you should consider is the management traffic between you and the network devices. In this nugget, Jeremy describes creating an Out Of Band (OOB) management network and three areas of network management: syslog, SNMP, and SSH.
Video 6 - "Foundation Router Security: Understanding and Implementing AAA" - AAA is more than just roadside assistance; it represents authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) methods you can use on a Cisco device. This nugget describes the concepts behind AAA and walks through the setup of a AAA device and the Cisco ACS TACACS+ server.
Video 7 - "Foundation Router Security: Using IOS-based Tools for Administrative Access" - While server security is essential, network security is of the utmost importance. One of the first network areas requiring more security is the area of administrative access. By default Cisco switches and routers will allow someone to attempt to logon to the device infinitely. This nugget focuses on locking down this logon prompt, configuring role-based access (sub-administrators), and securing the IOS and configuration files on your devices.
Video 8 - "Foundation Router Security: Becoming an ACL Wizard" - Understanding the implementation of Access Control Lists (ACLs) is critical for any Cisco environment, however, you can apply ACLs in more ways than one. In this nugget, Jeremy walks through guidelines for using ACLs followed by four practical scenarios of ACL implementation.
Video 9 - "Foundation Switch Security: Locking Down the Catalyst Switch" - In this nugget, all eyes turn to the internal network as Jeremy discusses Layer 2 security for your network. This initial nugget explores the reasons for L2 security, common attacks at L2, and concludes with one of the core mitigation techniques: port security.
Video 10 - "Foundation Switch Security: Locking Down the Catalyst Switch, Part 2" - Layer 2 security continues as Jeremy builds multiple layers of security at the switch level including Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) protection, Rogue DHCP server control, Storm Control, SPAN, and Private VLANs.
Video 11 - "Foundation Switch Security: Understanding NAC, Cisco CSA and VoIP Security" - The evolution of network attacks have dictated an entire new generation of Layer 2 security methods. In this nugget, Jeremy discusses these newer forms of security such as Network Admission Control (NAC), 802.1x, the Cisco Security Agent (CSA), and VoIP security.
Video 12 - "Security Services: Implementing Router-Based Firewalls" - The security focus moves from the switch environment to the routed network. This initial nugget discusses Cisco's two firewall strategies: The Cisco IOS Classic Firewall and the Zone-based Firewall.
Video 13 - "Security Services: Implementing Router-Based Firewalls, Part 2" - Cisco's Zone-based Firewall strategy is a completely new style of firewall for IOS routers. This nugget walks through the implementation of the new Zone-based Firewall on live Cisco gear.
Video 14 - "Security Services: Implementing Router-Based IPS" - The Cisco Integrated Service Router (ISR) product line was designed to implement many traditionally separate network functions into a single device. This made the implementation of Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) a natural one. In this nugget, Jeremy discusses the place and configuration of Cisco IPS on an ISR device.
Video 15 - "Security Services: Understanding VPN Components - IPSec and Encryption Virtual Private Networks" - (VPNs) have become a commonplace technology to allow remote users to access a network and bridge multiple offices connected to the Internet into a seamless network fabric. The architecture behind VPN technology is anything but commonplace. In this nugget, Jeremy discusses the IP Security (IPSec) protocol used to create VPN connections, focusing specifically on the encryption capabilities.
Video 16 - "Security Services: Understanding VPN Components - Digital Signatures and PKI" - The VPN discussion continues as Jeremy explains the ideas behind the Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) and certificate-based authentication.
Video 17 - "Security Services: Understanding VPN Architecture" - This final, conceptual nugget on VPN technology focuses on the process devices go through when establishing a VPN connection. Special attention is given to the important concepts of identifying interesting traffic and the Internet Key Exchange (IKE) phases.
Video 18 - "Security Services: Implementing Site-to-Site VPNs via Command Line" - It's time to put the VPN concepts into action! In this nugget, Jeremy walks through the step-by-step process to configure a site-to-site VPN using the command line interface.
Video 19 - "Security Services: Implementing Site-to-Site VPNs via SDM" - Once you have seen the command-line configuration of a site-to-site VPN, this nugget shows you the "easy configuration method" by setting up the same VPN using the Cisco Security Device Manager (SDM) graphic interface.
Video 20 - "A Final Word to CCNA Security Test Takers" - To conclude the CCNA Security series, Jeremy gives some final tips to those focused on the certification exam.

Here's what you'll learn in each video of the MCSE on Windows Server 2003 to Windows Server 2008, Technology Specialist: Exam-Pack 70-649 Series: Video 1 - "Series Overview" - This nugget sets the stage for the rest of the series. To that end, it is imperative that we set your expectations to ensure that you have purchased the correct Exam Pack. After you are satisfied that you will see more than adequate return on investment (ROI) with respect to your money, time, and effort, I will show you how I constructed this course. You will see how working through the nuggets in this Exam Pack in order will contribute to your exam success with a minimum of muss, fuss, or greasy aftertaste. Finally, we’ll review the "anatomy and physiology" of the 70-649 exam; after all, as your trainer I don't want you to enter the exam room with no earthly idea what to expect!
* Setting Expectations
* How this Series Works
* 70-649 Exam Strategies Video 2 - "Configuring Active Directory Figuring Active Directory Server Roles Part 1" - In this nugget we are concerned with one of Windows Server 2008's most improved features: server roles, role services, and features. In fact, we will be working with server roles and features throughout the remainder of this tutorial series. Next we embark on a consideration of two "flavors" of Active Directory: Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS), which is the successor to Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM) in Windows Server 2003; and Active Directory Rights Management Service (AD RMS). AD RMS provides an excellent way for companies to take control of their intellectual property in Web-based environment (think: SharePoint document libraries).
* Managing Server Roles and Features
* Deploying an Active Directory Lightweight Directory Service (AD LDS) Server
* Deploying a Active Directory Rights Management Service (AD RMS) Server Relevant Exam Objectives Configuring Active Directory Lightweight Directory Service (AD LDS) Configuring Active Directory Rights Management Service (AD RMS) Video 3 - "Configuring Active Directory Server Roles Part 1" - In this nugget we take a look at some really cool new features in Windows Server 2008. The Read Only Domain Controller (RODC), on its face, appears to be a throwback to the backup domain controllers (BDCs) that we had to deal with in Windows NT Server 4.0. However, the RODC provides much more robust functionality than you would expect from a server hosting a read-only copy of the Active Directory Domain Services database. Next, we embark on a brief tour of Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS), learning how companies can leverage this technology to provide single sign-on (SSO) for Web applications across disparate environments. Finally, we consider the Server Core installation option in Windows Server 2008. This installation method strips Windows Server of its graphical front-end and most application services, leaving with you a "lean, mean, fightin' machine" server with a dramatically reduced attack surface
* Deploying a Read-Only Domain Controller (RODC)
* Deploying an Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) Server
* Using the Server Core Installation Option Relevant Exam Objectives Configuring the Read-Only Domain Controller (RODC) Configuring Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) Video 4 - "Managing Name Resolution Part 1" - In this nugget we begin a detailed discussion on what's new and what's changed in Windows Server 2008 host name resolution, otherwise known as DNS. We start with an overview of how to add the DNS Server role to a server, and then follow through by creating a couple forward lookup zones. We conclude with adding some resource records, including an IPv6 AAAA host record. Although the new GlobalNames zone type is introduced in this nugget, we won't see the zone in action until the next nugget. Hang on to your hats!
* Installing and Configuring Domain Name System (DNS)
* Creating and Managing DNS Zones
* Creating and Managing DNS Resource Records Relevant Exam Objectives Configuring a Domain Name System (DNS) Server Configuring DNS Zones Configuring DNS Records Video 5 - "Managing Name Resolution Part 2" - In this nugget we conclude the discussion we began in the last nugget concerning the new GlobalNames zone in Windows Server 2008. In a nutshell, the GlobalNames zone provides a mechanism for resolving single-label names in a way similar to WINS. In this nugget we will also consider the ways we can optimize replication traffic with Active Directory-integrated DNS zones. Finally, we will "finish with a flourish" by briefly reviewing client-side TCP/IP configuration in Windows Server 2003 and Windows Vista
* Deploying the GlobalNames Zone
* Designing and Implementing DNS Replication
* Configuring Name Resolution for Client Computers Relevant Exam Objectives Configuring DNS Replication Configuring Name Resolution for Client Computers Video 6 - "Implementing an Active Directory Domain Services Infrastructure Part 1" - Just because the majority of what we are learning in this nugget and the next one is largely review from what you already know from Windows Server 2003 doesn't mean that you shouldn't be paying attention! No, indeed. In this nugget we will understand the mechanics of trust relationships. For instance, what is a shortcut trust, and how is a shortcut trust relationship different from an external trust relationship? How does one create a trust relationship? We will also learn why Active Directory subnet, site, and site links are so vitally important to Active Directory replication and user logon performance. Finally, we will consider domain and forest functional levels. See what I mean? I’ll bet you 20 dollars to a stale jelly donut I already got you to thinking, "Man, I really HAVE forgotten a lot of my old Server 2003 MCSE stuff. I better study this nugget closely!"
* Building an Active Directory Forest or a Domain
* Establishing Active Directory Trust Relationships
* Creating and Managing Sites, Subnets, and Site Links Relevant Exam Objectives Configuring a Forest or a Domain Configuring Trusts Configuring Sites Video 7 - "Implementing An Active Directory Domain Services Infrastructure Part 2" - In this nugget we continue our "haunted hayride" through the world of Active Directory replication. We spend more time with the Active Directory Sites and Services console, this time spending more time configuring site links and site link bridges. We also learn more about configuring the Global Catalog and how to enable Universal Group Membership Caching at the site level. Finally, we refresh our skills with the so-called FSMO (flexible single-master operations master) roles in Windows Server 2008. We learn what they are, the best-practice guidelines for placing them in your network infrastructure, how to determine role holders in your Active Directory forest, how to transfer role holders, and then how to seize roles.
* Managing Active Directory Replication
* Configuring the Global Catalog
* Administering Operations Master Roles Relevant Exam Objectives Configuring Active Directory Replication Configuring the Global Catalog Configuring Operations Masters Video 8 - "Administrative File and Print Service Part 1" - In this nugget we add another server role to Windows Server 2008: the File Server role. As we will learn, the File Server role consists of a handful of role services; however, the two main ones with which we are concerned in this nugget are the File Server Resource Manager (RSRM) service and the Distributed File System (DRS) service. By the end of this nugget we hope that you will (a) be equipped to answer any file server-related item on your 70-649 exam; and (b) be inspired to implement some of these nifty new technologies in your production environment at work. We will also briefly review the Shadow Copy Service and ensure that its usage has not changed in Windows Server 2008 from how it was used in Windows Server 2003.
* Deploying a File Server
* Implementing Distributed File System (DFS)
* Configuring Shadow Copy Services Relevant Exam Objectives Configuring a File Server Configuring Distributed File System (DFS) Configuring Shadow Copy Services Video 9 - "Administrative File And Print Services Part 2" - In this nugget, we consider the much-improved backup and restore tool that is built into Windows Server 2008. For your 70-649 exam, you need to understand not only the graphical user interface (GUI) tool, but also the command-line utility as well. Next we revisit the concept of disk quotas, reviewing the Resource Manager quotas that we introduced in the previous nugget, as well as discussing and demonstrating NTFS quotas, with which you should already be familiar from your experience with Windows Server 2003. Finally, we will learn to use the wonderful Windows Server 2008 Print Services tools. Deploying and managing print queues has never been easier; it is my goal to ensure that you not only have your bases covered with regard to your 70-649 exam, but you also walk away from this nugget with some great "real world" tips and tricks!
* Designing and Implementing a Backup and Restore Strategy
* Managing Disk Quotas
* Configuring and Monitoring Print Services Relevant Exam Objectives Configuring Backup and Restore Managing Disk Quotas Configuring and Monitoring Print Services Video 10 - "Managing Network Access Part 1" - In this nugget, we introduce what’s new, what’s changed, and what has stayed the same with regard to remote access technologies in Windows Server 2008. We'll also cover how to install and configure the Network Policy and Access Services server role.
