What do you need the Rainwall for? The nokia's failover by themselves.

That's quite a load of complexity for a system that needs high availability. Another question: will you use the firewall to encrypt/decrypt your VPN connections? If you've got a heavy volumn of VPN traffic, this may not be a great idea.

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.
