Hi, The pages you want are: http://www.checkpoint.com/products/choice/platforms/platforms_matrix.htm l http://www.checkpoint.com/products/choice/platforms/platforms_size.html http://www.checkpoint.com/products/choice/platforms.html
I'd say Nokia is an excellent choice for an appliance although it comes at a cost. The second best choice would be SecurePlatform, although less advanced as IPSO, it also does offer very good backup/restore functionalities. Migrating from a Solaris cluster which I guess is running some form of clusterxl towards nokia HA is not straight forward as it are completely different ways of doing HA. So no you cannot just join your Nokia to your HA cluster.

Folks, I have gotten to the bottom of my CP - HA flipping back and forth problems with Solaris. I put a much larger box in place of one of the firewalls and the problem has been better for some time now. This leads me to believe that I need to upgrade my hardware, which I have been saying for some time. I would prefer to move away from Solaris and get into an appliance. So should I go with Nokia or something else? I saw a message the other day on this list that someone was talking about a page on CP's website that pointed to hardware specs and connections for different hardware. Can someone send me that link and give me some ideas of what kind of experiences they have had with Nokia or some other appliances. Also, a second question. When I do upgrade to say a Nokia, can I just fail over to my backup box then join the Nokia to my HA cluster and then fail back to the Nokia? Or is it more complex than this? Thanks in advance!
