Who this book is for
This book is for anyone looking to build solid, practical skills with Palo Alto Networks firewalls. No prior experience with Palo Alto gear is required—if you’re starting from scratch, you’ll be fine. A basic understanding of networking concepts (IP addressing, routing, NAT) will help, but even that is reviewed where needed.
It’s also a useful resource for experienced firewall admins looking to sharpen their skills, adopt best practices, or get up to speed on PAN-OS 11.2. Whether you’re studying for a certification, deploying in production, or just trying to understand what your firewall is actually doing, this book is for you.
