Course Overview
NGX Bootcamp is a comprehensive training course will cover all aspects of NGX, starting with NGX I and leading upto NGX III. This is a intense hands-on lab with special focus on trouble-shooting and fault isolation techniques.

It provides more in-depth skills and expertise in managing and supporting Check Point products. Proficiencies include configuring and managing VPN-1/FireWall-1 as an Internet security solution and virtual private network (VPN), using encryption technologies to implement site-to-site and remote access VPNs, and configuring content security by enabling Java blocking and anti-virus checking.

It delves into trouble-shooting techniques, using network analyzers, reading sniffer traces, how to use "fw monitor" and other tools. 

The course is further enhanced by WCP Instructors with additional trouble-shooting labs. Various break case scenarios are analyzed and you will be taught how to troubleshoot and resolve the issues.
