Having taken the MCNS 2.0 beta exam, I can tell you that the test I took was
short on theory or design and very long on configuration(85-90%). Most of
what you need to know you can find in the Cisco Press Reference Library book
"Cisco IOS Network Security" ISBN 1-57870-057-4. Tailor your study to the
objectives.
Also, Chuck's recommendation to check out PIX configuration material from
Cisco's web site is a good one.
