Nokia Security Administration – High Availability is a one-day instructor-led course, which covers the resilient implementation of Firewall-1 on IPSO.

The course covers the theory and practice of High Availability in a complete Check Point-on-IPSO security system. The course is designed to be hands-on, and during the course delegates will implement a security system with minimal, known and quantified, single points of failure

Objectives

Delegates attending this course will be able to:

• Understand the theory of resilient design.
• Understand the IPSO alternatives of clustering and VRRP (virtual router resilience).
• Understand how to combine these mechanisms with power provision, appropriate switching technology and other related technologies to remove all single points of failure.
• Install an end-to-end High Availability solution.

Topics covered

• Theory of resilient design.
• VRRP – simplified, and traditional mode MC.
• IPSO clustering.
• Check Point clustering, cluster objects, synchronization, sync configuration, and tuning by protocol and by delayed sync.
• Clustering integration with switches.
• Duel power, dual hard drive mirroring.
• Check Point multiple link/ISPs.
• Static route priorities and failover.
• Link aggregation.

Certification

Delegates will receive a certificate of attendance.

Who should attend

Technical persons tasked with the support, installation, deployment or administration of Nokia security products should attend this course. This could include the following:

• System administrators
• Firewall administrators
• Network engineers
• Support engineers
• Installation Consultants

Pre-requisites

Persons attending this course should have completed the Nokia Security Administration Foundation course, as well as have a working knowledge of internetworking concepts and an understanding of TCP/IP, network addressing and subnet masks.

Follow-On Course

Please note, this course does not cover the use of dynamic routing as a resilience mechanism. Dynamic routing and routing over Check Point VPN are covered in the NSA Connectivity course, which is highly recommended if you need to understand all of your options in implementing a highly available system.necessary for advanced management of the Nokia family of IP security products.
