NONE!!! Enjoy the improved security, simplicity, advanced
features, and overall soundness of
the design, and built-in fail-over (you're buying two,
right?).
Remember, though, the Nokia is based on Free BSD UNIX so bone
up on your Unix
commands. Also, you'll probably want to create a
personal FTP server so you can store
the various patches, updates, et. al. on it. That way,
you can download updates to your
Nokia from a local source. Finally, enjoy Voyager web
interface, the ability to store mulitple
releases of the OS and the Firewall-1
software on the firewall itself, and the improved
speed.
Lanc Spitzner has some great ideas as does phoneboy.com. The Nokia
support page
(support.nokia.com) is always a great way to go.
One caveat we discovered: the GUI is supported by Check Point so
get a
subscription support support contract through them. The firewall-1
software on the
Nokia is supported by Nokia and Check Point so make sure you get
platinum-level
support contract through Nokia to Check Point. Finally, the hardware
is supported by Nokia
so get a hardware contract through Nokia. It's a lot of maintenance,
I know, but you'll be
thankful in the long haul if you have all three.
Best wishes.
