This training course is an online course that covers the Mikrotik RouterOS firewall. This 1 day session is a detailed introduction to firewalling concepts using MikroTik RouterOS. It offers extensive hands on training where you get a chance to really work what you're learning.

Why you should attend this training?
Butch has been in the business of teaching end users about the MikroTik product since 2004. Butch Evans is the first trainer ever certified by MikroTik to present training on their product and was the first to develop a full training course on this product. Butch has been in the ISP business since 1994 and his extensive experience comes through in the training presentation. The core of our curriculum has been in development since 2004, so the presentation material you will see has been tested and proven to work well for both the student and teacher.

We offer a private training as well, either online or in person. If you'd like more information on that option, please call or visit the private training information page HERE.

About the course.
This course is a detailed look at the art (and science) of building firewall applications using MikroTik's RouterOS software.

This course includes the following topics among others:

• Defining your overall security policy
  
• How to document your firewall
  
• Understanding network traffic
  
• Protecting your router from attack
  
• How to translate between "iptables" and RouterOS Firewall rulesets
  
• Understanding the different types of firewall applications
  
• Designing and using NAT in your configuration
  
• Troubleshooting your firewall application
  
• And more!!
  

Who Should Attend:
This training is targeted toward network administrators, integrators, managers and others who wish to gain a better understanding of firewalling concepts in general and firewalling with Mikrotik RouterOS specifically.

Prerequisites:
An understanding of networking concepts is required. Attendees should have a good understanding TCP/IP and understand network communications basics (ARP, Broadcast/Unicast concepts). While we do cover network communications in some detail, attendees will gain much more from this course if you come into the course with this background.
(We have a course available HERE that will teach this if you're not familiar with these concepts.)

Course Length:
Approximately 7 hours (Includes LOTS of hands on training)

What you will need

The training course is offered via a web conference and a toll-free dial in teleconference (for the audio). We use Webex for the web conferencing and they recommend either Windows XP (or higher) or Mac. I have found that MOST functions work with Linux, but cannot guarantee functionality if you choose to use Linux (I know... I use Linux myself.) Each ticket purchased will permit ONE connection to the conference resources (dial-in teleconference). You will need to set up a way for all attendees at your location to view the web conference AND listen in on the teleconference. For the labs, each user will have access to a router at my training center, so each student will want to have access to a PC for the labs. It is not required that you have a MikroTik Router available for this course, but many students have commented that having local routers for testing would have been beneficial to them.
