Re: [FW1] Requirements for FW-1/VPN-1 and Floodgate on Nokia IP 330



Luke,

    I guess my answer is a bit premature.  These configurations might
work in
an environment where there is low, and I mean extremely low, bandwidth
and
management of such.  However, my testing has been in an environment
where there
is currently a 15Mb line and the original configurations were set to the
minimum because CP said that it would work.  Well, we are now into the
3rd
month of these configs and are currently still in an unstable state. 
The box
has been upgraded because initially the FG process was trying to eat up
more
memory than was available to it.  Next we ended up zapping the actual
ipso
software to get it release more memory to these two processes, but still
to no
avail.  Have I experienced problems with this, yes and they don't look
like
they are going away any time soon.
