[FW1]

Greetings,

I have to tune a customer's Firewall FW1-4.1:
- OS: Win NT Server
- Connections: max 7000
- about 50 simultaneous connections between WWW server and Oracle db
- VPN tunnels: max 50 (non simultaneous)
- Network architecture:=20

  Oracle Database -------------FW1--------------Internet
                                       |
                                   |
                          DMZ with Web Server

- Internet link: 1 Mbit/sec
- 100 Mbit/sec PC cards

How much RAM and Disk Space should I have on the fw? Which processor
(single or dual) do you suggest?

Any ideas are welcome, thanks in advice.
