Hi, you mixed up two different Products.
NG is the next step after Firewall 4.1. Provider-1 is a Software that can manage all Firewall4.1 (and later NG) filter modules. Provider-1 is only suitable for companies running a large number of Firewalls where the use of an Enterprise Center becomes to inflexible. --Joerg -----Ursprungliche Nachricht----- Von: Roman Serbski [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Gesendet: Montag, 12.

Hi list Sorry for stupid question I think I'm lost with terminology :-) Is there any difference between Checkpoint NG (Next Generation) and Provider-1? NG seems to be next step after FW1 4.1, right? What is Provider-1 in this case? Our company uses Checkpoint FW-1 4.1. Since Checkpoint stopped with providing support for everything prior to 4.1 (BTW what about supporting 4.1? Still valid for some period of time? :-) our top management suggested to upgrade to NG. So, Provider-1 is the latest version?, or? ... :-) Second question: Is there any way to upgrade to NG from FW-1 4.1, or everything should be installed from scratch? Looking forward to hear from you.
