Goran, obviously, you have to do some DD to make a decision about which appliance to use. It depends on many factors such as performance requirements, price, number of users, environment, technical personnel, vendor's name and quality of support. There are many new names and devices. Some of them you can find here: http://www.rtek2000.com/Tech/InternetSecureLinks.html#appl But again, do not rely upon somebody's opinion. Do you DD yourself and present your document to your management. I usually create a spreadsheet with various parameters, price, and other factors. It'll help you (or your management) to make a decision. Best of luck! ********************************** Roman Zeltser, @National Computer Center, RSIS & DNE -----Original Message----- From: Goran Jovanovic [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, January 31, 2002 4:51 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [FW-1] VPN-1 & Appliances Does anyone have a good recommendation for which appliance to use for a VPN solution. I am looking (for a client) at FW-1/VPN-1 at the hub and an appliance at each end of a spoke. I see 4 to 5 spokes which will have 128 or 256 K connection to the Internet. Head Office will have something faster (not sure yet). The remote offices are small and cannot (will not) afford a full Checkpoint F/W. The remotes will allow browsing to the Internet through their local connection and the VPN back to head office. Any external access to the network will be done through the main Checkpoint F/W.
