Hi.
We were using a Borderware firewall 6.1 until we changed to Checkpoint
Firewall-1. The Borderware runs well in general, but we had several strange
problems with disappearing routes and proxies so we had to restart the
Borderware regularly (approx. once a week). The Borderware firewall is not
as flexible as Firewall-1. NAT cannot be turned off, some application
proxies are not available (e.g. SQLnet2). But therefore configuring the
Borderware is very easy. ;-)
We established a VPN tunnel to a business partner who used a FW-1 and we
had no problems with it this as long as at least Borderware Firewall 6.11
SP1 or somewhat is used.
But due to the above mentioned problems with Borderware we decided to buy a
Checkpoint FW-1.

discussion of Firewall-1
Hi,
I may be OT but I do not know who to ask.
I succesfully have some FW-1s running and now a distant site of ours wants
to get its own internet access with maybe borderware (www.borderware.com).
I
never heard of this and therefore do not know anything besides the
marketing
crap on the website.
Are there any technical experiences with this product? Problems?
And what would be good 2 know, can it establish a vpn to FW-1?
TIA
Steffen
