Re: [FW1] Is split tunneling secure

[Peter Goodridge <petegdr@FW1-NOSPAMyahoo.com>]

We have a proposal to put a Nortel solution in in
parallel with our firewall.  This would mean I'd have
separate logs, and even with NTP, it will be harder to
track what is happening.  Nortel might be easier, but
I can't imagine a second product in parallel would be
more secure.  Also Checkpoint's main goal is security,
while nortel wants to make sure the user can get
though.

Bottom line, stick with Checkpoint only.

my 2 cents.
