Also using Watchguard. Very easy to use. Mostly. You can try to bend it to your will and it will give you resistance, but if you don't try to use it in a way the developer never imagined, it is easy to set up and modify.
The support is out of India and the accents can be thick. I've had three tech calls over the past 5 years and one was a joy, one was efficient, and one was hang up and try the lottery for someone with a brain. They have an active user forum with some very active and very knowledgeable power users. On the downside, it took them 9 months to get a VPN Client for Vista. Apparently they missed the two years of hype and beta testing that preceded the release of vista. Maybe Seattle is a long way from Redmond... Bill From: Jim S. Walters [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 31, 2008 2:51 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Firewall Recommendation Hello, we have a Checkpoint firewall that is coming up for maintenance renewal and the price is going up and up and finding qualified consultants to assist with upgrades is getting harder and harder. I'm very satisfied with the firewall itself, but feel it's time to review what other people are using. Our needs are simple, we have one office with 160 users now but expect to open other offices in the future. We have a dozen or so remote users who VPN in. We have a half dozen machines in the DMZ for various uses and use RSA for authentication. What firewall systems are you using and which would you buy if you had the opportunity to start fresh? Thanks Jim Walters ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
