Are you looking at a firewall from a Service Provider perspective for deploying the fw's at the SOHO/home users? If tahts the case take a look at iPolicy Networks ipEnforcer. Its a high end box that sits in the core network and can create virtual instances of fw/ids/url filtering/avs/ddos blocking all in one integrated platform on a per SOHO/home user basis. One device can support upto thousands of home users for a service provider who wants to resell this as services to their customer, it has centralized management and the management has great hooks to manage the thousands of users.

Hello, We are currently evaluating several remote firewall devices for broadband usage: SonicWall TZ PIX 501 Intrusions PDS 1150 Netscreen I've been poking around the net for some recent comparisons and what not about the different platfomrs to no avail so I've decided to approach the user community. There will be several hundred at least and I figure that some folks out there may have some interesting thoughts or comments on the different platforms that may have escaped us. We are looking for the good, the bad and the ugly. The critical issues are: security issues of the individual platform management issues (sw, firmware, policy) mechanisms for managing virus sw revisions dual vs triple interfaces we'd like to separate "home" from "work" thnx. u __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
