With Provider each management client will have thier own objects. Your essentially giving each customer or access point in your case, thier own management stations. I don't think this would be a good solution for what your looking to do. I'd suggest running all your firewalls on a couple of management servers and replicate the objects.c to the other management servers. -jason ------Original Message------ From: "Greg Winkler" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: April 20, 2001 7:27:20 PM GMT Subject: [FW1] Managing a lot of firewalls A suggestion has been made that we move to an Internet access model that involves firewalls and ISP connection points at many of our locations, mostly in Europe. Can't give you an exact number but I would guess we are talking about 30 or so firewalls. How would one manage so many? Right now we've got only 4 and management is fairly simple using and Enterprise license. Can a single management station manage 30 plus firewalls. I would expect probably not. What are the options? I've heard of Provider-1, would that allow me to "manage" multiple management stations such that I would still only have one set of network objects and rulebase to maintain? Does it work well? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Greg Winkler Systems Manager, IT&S Huntsman Corporation Internet Mail: [email protected] Voice:Fax:================================================================================ To unsubscribe from this mailing list, please see the instructions at http://www.checkpoint.com/services/mailing.html ================================================================================ ----------------------------------------------- FREE!
