Become a Clavister NetWall Expert

Deep down at the heart of every NetWall product lies cOS Core. Clavister cOS Core is the base software engine that drives and controls the range of our next-generation firewalls. Designed as a network security operating system, cOS Core features high throughput performance with high reliability plus super granular control.

In contrast to products built on top of standard operating systems such as Unix or Microsoft Windows, cOS Core offers seamless integration of all its subsystems, in-depth administrative control of all functionality, as well as a minimal attack surface which helps to negate the risk from security attacks.

The Clavister NetWall Expert path consists of four different trainings, which are, in the recommended order, the following: Clavister NetWall Fundamentals, Clavister NetWall Building Corporate Networks, Clavister NetWall VPN and Clavister NetWall Routing.

All trainings include 2 certification attempts.

Clavister NetWall Fundamentals

Clavister NetWall Fundamentals is the first training to attend for anyone not familiar with the NetWall product range. It constitutes the prerequisite for all other trainings in the NetWall path and as such the very first step on the way to become both a NetWall expert and a more complete and successful person. Both beginners and technicians with experience from other firewall vendors are welcome to attend.

After completing this training, you will have a good understanding of basic network security, of how to properly install and configure a Next Generation Firewall, and how it fits into a typical network. You will also gain good insight in its various subsystems and their purpose.

This training covers a lot of ground and provides you with the knowledge on how to:

• use the full range of administration and log management tools: CLI, web UI, InControl and InCenter
• understand the concepts of routing, objects and security policies
• set up and use threat management features such as Intrusion Detection and Prevention, Application Control, NetEye, IP reputation, etc.
• use authentication to the fullest
• configure LAN-to-LAN and roaming VPN tunnels the easy way

This training is delivered in 3 different formats:
