IBM Redbooks

• A Comprehensive Guide to Virtual Private Networks, Volume III: Cross-Platform Key and Policy Management
  This redbook closely examines the functionality of the Internet Key Exchange protocol (IKE) - which is derived from the Internet Security Associations Key Management Protocol (ISAKMP) and the Oakley protocol. IKE provides a framework and key exchange protocol for Virtual Private Networks (VPN) that are based on the IP Security Architecture (IPSec) protocols.
• AS/400 e-commerce: Internet Connection Servers
  This redbook covers the use and configuration of the Internet Connection Servers. For the secure server, the redbook includes certificate management, getting a certificate from a certificate authority, creating a self-signed certificate, and so on.
• AS/400 Internet Security: Implementing AS/400 Virtual Private Networks
  Secure your AS/400 network with virtual private networks (VPNs). This redbook explores VPN concepts and describes its implementation using IP security (IPSec) and Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) on the operating system.
• AS/400 TCP/IP Autoconfiguration: DNS and DHCP Support
  This redbook describes the Domain Name System (DNS) server and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server support that are included with the operating system.
• TCP/IP Tutorial and Technical Overview
  The TCP/IP protocol suite has become the de facto standard for computer communications in today's networked world. The TCP/IP Tutorial and Technical Overview takes an in-depth look into the TCP/IP protocol suite.

• V5 TCP/IP Applications on the IBM iSeries Server
  Building on the "cool" ideal, this IBM^(R) Redbook describes V5 enhancements to many of the TCP/IP applications. The two redbook predecessors are V3, Cool Title About the AS/400 and Internet, SG24-4815, and V4 TCP/IP for AS/400: More Cool Things Than Ever, SG24-5190. This book covers Telnet, File Transfer Protocol, Internet Printing Protocol, Network Time Protocol, Simple Mail Transfer Protocol, and making Virtual Private Network connections with the iSeries^(TM), to and from the Internet.
• iSeries IP Networks: Dynamic!
  If you need to design an IP network that is self-configuring, fault-tolerant, secure, and efficient in its operation, then use this IBM redbook.
