About this title

Synopsis

"Building a Secure Linux Intranet & Internet: A Guide to Linux Server Networking for the Home or Small Business" explores the many advantages of using a Linux server as a home router and firewall. The book highlights how a Linux-based server provides flexibility and customization that far surpasses consumer-grade routers, particularly when combined with the speed and reliability of fiber-optic internet. Readers will learn how to repurpose a regular PC to create a powerful, cost-effective Linux server capable of handling advanced tasks such as traffic management, VPN setup, and Quality of Service (QoS) prioritization.

Security is a key focus of this guide, emphasizing how Linux's robust firewall tools like iptables, nftables, and Fail2Ban offer superior protection compared to commercial routers. With these tools, users can implement advanced security measures such as stateful packet inspection and automated defenses against common cyber threats. The book also covers practical solutions for managing dynamic IP addresses and maintaining high-performance connectivity, allowing users to optimize their network for both personal and professional use.

Designed for tech enthusiasts, professionals, and DIY hobbyists, the book also serves as a hands-on learning tool, helping readers deepen their understanding of Linux, networking, and security principles. By guiding readers through the setup of a Linux server as a home router, the book provides valuable insights into the networking fundamentals needed to manage secure, efficient, and scalable home or small business networks.
