[c-nsp] Cisco ASA IPS Module

[Tony Varriale]

For first timers, I always recommend 3 attack angles (or 2.5).

1) Start where you are starting.  It will give you a nice warm and fuzzy and 
will build your confidence.
2) Go where Fred recommended.  The book is solid.
2.5/3) Start using it and document your specific requirements.  Make sure 
you have a good understanding of options especially when it comes to 
blocking.
