Re: [FW-1] Pix vs FW1



How is your failover with NG.  We are currently using Stonebeat and are having a number of issues with failover.

Ali,

Yes, I installed it in September with the Checkpoint HA. I have been very happy with it. I recommend either that or just run NG on the Nokia's. Do you need to buy a vpn accelerator card with the Nokias, or is it fast enough?

We've asked every vendor we've spoken to (and there has been a few) about NG
and all of them have said "hasn't been out long enough for us to recommend
it - wait for the SP".

Is anyone using CP's HA on NG (sorry going acronym mad)?  If so how do you
find it so far?

Ali,

Why don't you just get the Checkpoint FW-1/NG and use the Checkpoint HA
solution?

Hi

We're looking into a fault tolerant firewall solution and would appreciate
some real world feedback.

We need the failover to be 100% stateful, VPNs and all.  There cannot be any
renegotiation of tunnels if we're in the middle of a transaction, it needs
to be seamless.

We have narrowed down our options to Cisco PIX and FW-1 using Rainwall.  We
would use the Cisco version of Enterprise Management Console - I think it is
called VMS (VPN Monitoring / Security Management Solution) so management
isn't an issue (unless VMS is no good).  I appreciate that Rainwall is load
balancing instead of failover but it seems to do what we want.

Our major issue is that the FW-1 solution is 3-4 times the price of the
Cisco solution however if the functionality is so much better we could
persuade the powers that be.

Any info gratefully received.

Ali Port.
