Interesting concept. One thought that might be helpful -- 

> *         Firewall
> *         DDOS/Anti-DOS
> *         Intrusion Detection System/ Intrusion Prevention System
> (IDS/IPS)
> *         Access control/Authorization/Authentication

I think I would try to frame things in terms of services, rather than
devices, or a mix of the two. For instance -- what does a "firewall" really
do? Stateful packet inspection, deep packet inspection, and... ?? So maybe a
list something like this might make sense -- (and remember, this is
brainstorming, nothing more) --

- Stateful packet inspection
- Deep packet inspection
- Packet/flow/stream filtering (remote and local)
- Packet/flow/stream redirect (remote and local)
- Intrusion detection (or perhaps flow/stream pattern matching?)
- AAA

Don't know if this is a useful line of thought or not.
