Re: [FW-1] Compaq Servers (on linux) or Nokia (on freebsd)



I've heard that suggestion before.....

How does running checkpoint on twin nokias compare to dual compaqs running
checkpoint (on Linux)
We would need to run them in some kind of automatic failover mode, similar
to VRRP.  Can this be done?  How about reliability, can they match nokias
track record?  Has the OS been tightened as Nokia's IPSO?

Any chance you have tried both methods?

Thanks
