pfSense Essentials: The Complete Reference to the pfSense Internet Gateway and Firewall

I reviewed this book. It is a great introduction to pfSense. The author is long time member of the BSD community and has done a service to the tech world by writing an updated book about pfSense (a FreeBSD based firewall). The book provides comprehensive information on all of the features of pfSense, including IPv6, rate limiting, setting up a captive portal, setting up multiple types of VPNs (IPSEC and OpenVPN), and more. if you want the complete documentation for pfSense in printed book form then order this book.

for the most part this is a not worth the money it is just to basic that you can get from an YouTube video. you will get more bang for you buck if you just read the official PDF and watch YouTube videos on it.

If you are using pfSense this truly is a must have book. The information ranges from novice to expert. I used this book to help secure my home network. What I appreciated the most was the clear explanation form the many options available with pfSense.

Very well written, informative, and easy to follow. A must in your home book case or IT office.

Great book! Well written and well researched. Well worth the time and money!

The author does little more than simply enumerate what's on each setup/config page on the Web UI and gives (very) brief descriptions of each, rarely adding any guidance. All of this is available for free in the pFsense book (obtainable from their site). This book is completely irrelevant as far as I can tell.
