Re: [FW-1] Fw-1 and Charlie Appliance



Greetings!

there is a (German?) OPSEC partner Pyramid www.pryramid.de offering an
appliance for FW-1 called Charlie. It seems to be similar like Nokia or
Intrusion.


Yes, German company (located in Freiburg). Excellent service - you can
directly talk to knowledgeable techies/developers.

Charlies basically are industrial PCs with a custom RedHat Linux install
and FW1 with current patches and hotfixes installed.

Choose the XL model as the "normal" box seemed to be a bit instable
(mechanically that is - NIC cards not fixated) to me. Pyramid's rack
appliances usually are rock-solid: very clean build, sometimes even
kinda overdone. Software installation was heavily stripped down as it
should be for a firewall and very clean - maybe even a bit too clean as
some non-essential but useful tools are missing. But better this way
than the other way round as installing is easier than removing.


Has anybody some good information on it and maybe even experiences?


Just contact Pyramid (+49-761-4514-721, Alexander Dahn), ask for a test
drive (usually no problem and fast) and see yourself.

Bye

Volker
