RE: DMZ / Firewall rule diagramming

Hi Gary,

Hmmm.. Now seems to be called SmartMap
(http://www.checkpoint.com/products/smartcenter/smartmap.html)
But there's not a lot of info about it (other than three paras and a
screen shot).  Does say that it works in both directions (rules to
diagram, diagram to rules), but sounds like it prefers to have the rules
first...

Oh well, if one of the vendors is starting in that area, it probably
means that the others are close behind.

Time to go scope out the major vendors again...

Later'ish
Craig
