Great IT Security overview book

The book presents security overview mostly in Cisco Networking Environment and is very well written without any serious flaws. I found just one minor, which might be considered as a technical reviewer's overlook (page 151, example 8-10). Also SNMP explanation in final chapter is quite formal and limited just to specifying a number of router configuration commands syntax. Authors don't tell anything about security issues associated with SNMP v1/v2 and how SNMP v3 addresses these. And SNMP case study does not shed a light on it as well. That is the reason I have reduced my rating of the book by one star. But the book is really well done and I even did read all the Appendix pages, which is a bit unusual with me.
