You are correct about that. Good point. My bad. From: Richard Stovall [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, January 04, 2012 8:26 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: All in one firewall
That is a viable strategy for the hardware, but it doesn't keep the virus and content definitions current. (At least it wouldn't in SonicWall land. I haven't used Fortinet's products.)

From: Tom Miller [mailto:[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>] Sent: Wednesday, January 04, 2012 6:59 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: All in one firewall Hi Folks, I know this have been covered many times before, but I can't find anything in the archive about all in one firewalls. I currently use Fortinet firewalls at my HQ and VPN sites. I like that they have a variety of features in one box (virus scanning, general firewall, content filtering, etc) in a single device, and that's good for we non-profits. They work well, but renewals are due soon, the devices are old and due for replacement. Before I just buy the next model, anyone have any recommendations for all-in-one firewalls? I think the Fortinet SOHOs I purchase are about $700 per unit and maybe $275 for annual support/updates/subscriptions. These units support sites that have 2-7 full time staff. Not much going on there. So no heavy requirements in terms of bandwidth control. Most staff are just using our XenApp systems to access our clinical apps here at HQ. Suggestions/comments/recommendations appreciated. Thanks and best wishes for 2012.
