Since I attended a presentation of a NetScreen I associate VPN access with this box. However, there are many good boxes that may satisfy various requirements. http://www.rtek2000.com/Tech/InternetSecureLinks.html#appl -----Original Message----- From: Jonas Thambert [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, July 10, 2001 8:15 AM To: 'Steve'; [email protected] Subject: RE: [FW1] Black box or normal machine The Nokia CC500 box is a great little VPN box. The only downside is the lack of features and a really horrible admin GUI written in Java. Without breaking my NDA with Nokia I can tell you that their CC-series will be developed into a great vpn platform. /jonas -----Original Message----- From: Steve [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: den 7 juli 2001 22:55 To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [FW1] Black box or normal machine We have the need for VPN access from clients. Originally we planned to use SecuRemote to our existing Checkpoint Firewall-1. We have separate Management and Firewall machines and even using IKE encryption we have to by two encryption licenses which are not cheap. This only gives us DES. If we want triple DES we have to upgrade the Firewall-1 binaries. However Nokia's CC500 offers a similar solution for a tenth of the price of the additional checkpoint encryption licenses. I cannot think of an argument not to but this box and simply put it infront of our Firewall-1 to handle the VPN side. Is checkpoint Firewall-1 massively over priced or am I missing something? -Steve ============================================================================ ==== To unsubscribe from this mailing list, please see the instructions at http://www.checkpoint.com/services/mailing.html ============================================================================ ==== ============================================================================ ==== To unsubscribe from this mailing list, please see the instructions at http://www.checkpoint.com/services/mailing.html ============================================================================ ==== ================================================================================ To unsubscribe from this mailing list, please see the instructions at http://www.checkpoint.com/services/mailing.html ================================================================================
