Hi Joseph, I think you'll see over time that everyone will want to get into this game. More and more people are seeing that the emperor has no clothes when it comes to "stateful filtering" firewalls (PIX). Now, the ISA challenge will be for it to remain the market leader. Thanks!

Upcoming article http://www.ISAserver.org Hi Thomas, As, I was installing Solaris 9.0 on one of my machines the other day, I noticed that Sun has Released Sunburst 3.2 with the OS. Sunburst 3.2 was the software behind Checkpoint hardware Firewalls. It seems that they now want to compete in the Software solution of firewalls As well.

Upcoming article http://www.ISAserver.org "While I refer to this as the ISP co-location configuration, you can also use it in other scenarios. For example, suppose you want to bring a powerful ISA 2004 stateful application layer inspection firewall into your network. The problem is that you have to deal with people who have swallowed the Myth of the Hardware Firewall, hook, line and sinker (check out http://isaserver.org/articles/2004tales.html for more information on this subject). One way to get your ISA 2004 firewall into the mix is to put the ISA 2004 firewall in a DMZ segment between the two "hardware" firewalls. By using the ISA 2004 firewall in an ISP co-location configuration in the DMZ, you'll be able to get real stateful application layer inspection protection while mollifying the "hardware" firewall guys' flagging egos." :-) Tom www.isaserver.org/shinder Get the book!
