1. Get SunScreen SecureNet 3.1 (newer than 3.0) and install patch 109734-03
from sunsolve.sun.com unless you have specific reasons not to.
2. I dont think the SKIP implementation in fw1 and SunScreen "match" - i've
heard it doesnt work - please comment on that someone if im wrong. SunScreen
as for v. 3.1 only support SKIP. 3.2 is supposed to be served with
IPsec/IKE, and is due to june.
3. The main feature in SunScreen that makes it the best fw in the world (my
opinion) is the stealth feature(read about it at sun.com)
- the second best thing in the world is ssadm edit <policy> - the CLI
admin solution. You dont need GUI to do anything with your firewall.
4. SunScreen is multithreaded so that it can use all your cpu's. FW1 isnt.
(yet)
Hope this was of any help. - You always have www.sun.com/software/securenet
