Features of this Book

This book contains discussion on the extended features of ACS as well as AR. This book also combines configuration examples with a step-by-step how-to for each item. This book uses a "ground up" approach. You will not configure a device until it has been built from the ground up. This will assist in you installation and implementation process.

As you work through the book, you'll note that shorthand commands are sometimes used in the code examples. In addition, comments within code most often appear on the line that they are describing. This format was used by the author was clarity and conciseness.
