Hey everyone,
Is there a consensus anywhere, in terms of which of the above to go
for to secure 1-50 people SMEs at the perimeter, in terms of the
following:
- cost
- ease of setup and administration
- quality and availability of support
Any input from those experienced with the above would be appreciated.
Dan

Replacing 28 Checkpoint enterprise firewalls with Juniper was one
of the best things I ever did. Support is good, big savings
on support, hardware is solid, etc. 8 countries, total about
30,000 users. Enterprise admin with Netscreen Security Manager.
A happy customer. Also love their SSL VPN, a real win for business
partners too.
Checkpoint support was really bad (if existent), too many bugs,
and really expensive.

What features do you need? What are your security requirements?

Cisco ASA 5505 is a solid UTM solution that can support up to 50 users
with an easy to use GUI (hard to believe, no more CLI). It provides
FW, IPSec and SSL VPN on the same box. It also supports backup WAN
link if you have two ISPs. If you need AV as well, go with the ASA
5510 with the CSC-SSM module. Can't beat Cisco TAC.

They come at no extra charge, the same as other vendors, but Cisco does
throw in more.
