I'm trying desperately to understand MARS. It seems like a powerful tool, but I find the GUI rather unintuitive and it is difficult for me personally to learn by reading the Cisco documentation.

I was supposed to take a MARS class with Global Knowledge, but our training budget for the year is exhausted so I'm looking for any self-training that might be available. I've got the Cisco Press "Security Monitoring with Cisco MARS" book, but was hoping there might be some CBT or other training documentation out there. Unfortunately CBT Nuggets, who I absolutely love, doesn't have MARS in their CCSP series.

Thanks.
