On the one hand, it is highly advisable to protect your routers,
mail servers, and so on.
On the other hand, a firewall at *your* borders is not the right
solution for your "corporate customers", since it doesn't protect
them from any of your other customers. I don't think it would be
responsible to tout this solution to them as fulfilling their
security needs.
