Each student in our ACA training class works through all the major features of Astaro Security Gateway necessary to configure straight network topologies, from initial setup to log analysis. We provide a reality-oriented lab environment with ASGs, PC or laptop, lab guides and a student guide (written by Astaro professionals) enriched with tips, tricks and other resources that will help administrators in their day to day environment. We encourage students to bring network maps of their system environments for discussion, configuration options and recommendations.
