Fortigate also uses a linux kernel and some gnu tools.
no wonder it also behaves like a Pentium 4 white box
Linux solution under heavy loads.

there's a downside in using an all-in-one turn key
solution. it can be exciting to use all of its features
at once (ie. anti-virus, IDS, etc.) but it can choke
your device. upgrading it would be a no-no, scaling
out should take place instead.

Sure, Zebra can do that for you, but a Linux box for WAN links is

As Regino has mentioned, maybe Tony is better off with an appliance
(Fortigate is one; I've personally used Sonicwall) that does what he
needs.
