Hi Ramon, We at Quinnipiac would be interested in getting a sanitized copy of your criteria. We are entertaining at looking to another vendor for a firewall solution. -Andy Soliwoda ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~ Andrzej Soliwoda Network Manager Quinnipiac University * Statement of Confidentiality The contents of this e-mail message and any attachments are confidential and are intended solely for addressee.

The solution is extremely flexible in its configuration options (IDS/IPS, VPN, Firewall, AV, and web filtering). We are also pleased about the scalability options since we are going through some growing pains and may double our internet bandwidth within the year.

We are currently using a pair of end of life PIX 515s. We have been looking at the Cisco ASA and Juniper Netscreen products. We are very early in our evaluation and haven't talked with any venders yet. We are wondering if any other campus has been through this process recently and can offer any suggestions. We are looking at the bandwidth they can handle, price, added features such as VPN, IDS/IPS functionality, likes and dislikes and any other helpful advise. Currently we are a mixed Cisco and HP shop, but are open to any and all vendors solutions. Thanks, Jeff Holden, CISSP, RHCE Manager, Network & Data Security Mt.
