I need some information about Checkpoint firewall-1 deplayment in an internetworking enviroment.
How does Firewall -1 work with switches and routers ( for example : Alcatel OmniSwitch/Router ).
I have a network with a firewall-1 machine as internet security gateway.
And i want to use the same firewall to enforce security
in the enternal network of the company. This network has a star architechture,
where each department is reached through a
switch.
I've learn from checkpoint site that checkpoint firewall-1 interacts
with switches to enforce security, using OPSEC partners
hardware or software.
My goal is to understand what is really needed in each component of
the network :
- the firewalled computer ( licence, the network has about
250 computers )
- switches requiements, so that firewall-1 machine should enforce security
between the deparments,
- any other component.
Any link will be very appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
