We have a firewall (FW-1 v4) running on a Sun ES450 that connects numerous
subsidiary networks. As a result of the divergent networks involved (as well
as address translation in some cases), we have add a number of static
network routes (and static host routes) to the firewall. We are currently up
to almost 200 lines in the routing table. This firewall is experiencing
through-put problems (at least everyone is pointing fingers at it) and the
vendor (Sun) tech support has stated that it could be caused by this large
number of static routes. Has anyone else experienced this scenerio or have
experience with a large routing table on a Sun box? One comment I
particularly did not like was "It's not a router you know". Just what do
they think a firewall does anyway?
