2nd one means a huge cost blowout if you want them centrally managed...
i.e. you will need Enterprise.
Company I am with doesn't really believe in failover... we just back
things up... yes I know that sucks, but they are cheap asses... which is
why we didn't go Firewall-1 ;-)
The number of clients will be about 400... but with low usage. As long
as I can still set up the security using NT/AD groups, then the
standalone will be fine.
As for hardware... what are we talking about?
I was looking at a rack mounted Compaq DL?? with a 1G PIII and either
512MB of Ram, or more if needed... also probably about 36G of disk.
With the stateful inspection, I have heard you need more Ram the more
effective you want that to be... is that true?
PS... Thanx Jim for your help...
