Mastering AT&T Vyatta (vRouter) Firewall
What you'll learn
- They will have hands on experience configuring a Vyatta Firewall
Requirements
- Some Linux based operating system experience will be helpful
Description
Students will learn to configure Vyatta Firewall by using examples. They will be taught on how to install a Virtualbox and enable networking on it. Later they will be showed how create virtual machines in the Virtualbox and then perform different tasks in the configuration of the firewall.
All the software is free to download and therefor there is no need to purchase any software. The CLI for Vyatta is very similar to any linux based operating system. So, it will be very useful to have some background on a Linux operating system, but it is not mandatory.
Students will learn how each of the feature of the Vyatta firewall functions in a networked environment and how you can restrict and allow traffic based on different criteria.
Students will be able to follow the flow of traffic from one network to another and then restrict or allow it by matching IP addresses, MAC addresses and other perimeters.
This course will provide a very good foundation from basics to almost intermediate level on how the firewall works and how to configure it.
Who this course is for:
- Students who may have some background in Firewall and want to learn more

I have been in a technology role for more than 20 years now. Started off working at Sun Microsystems back in 1996 as an entry level systems administrator. I have worked for companies like Netscape, Tivoli Systems, Amazon, Cisco Systems and most recently IBM.
My expertise has been in Linux, Windows, Network, Virtualization and most recently in Cloud Computing.
I have a bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering from Wichita State University.
I have previously taught courses at community colleges and have taken technical training online.
I think I can explain technical subjects in a very systematic and easy to follow manner.
