If all you are doing is redundancy and maybe a little load balancing, why are you even doing this on the firewall? This should be at the router in front of ISA. It is trivial to add a second interface to a router and do per packet, per session load balancing, and/or implement priority or route weights for redundancy. Let the router route. Let the firewall be the firewall. ________________________________ From: isalist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:isalist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Ball, Dan Sent: Tuesday, April 24, 2007 6:47 AM To: isalist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [isalist] Re: Failover Bandwidth In Minneapolis... *grin* When we got the $30K-$40K quote, we didn't have a choice but to keep looking... ________________________________ From: isalist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:isalist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Crockett, Gregory Sent: Monday, April 23, 2007 4:57 PM To: isalist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [isalist] Re: Failover Bandwidth I just spent $34k for 2 BIG-IP link controller with installation v.

We recently switched from that to a PowerLink Pro 100 from www.astrocorp.com <http://www.astrocorp.com/> . It does pretty much everything RainConnect did, and is far cheaper than some of the other alternatives we looked at. ________________________________ From: isalist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:isalist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Shamshad Ahmad Sent: Friday, April 20, 2007 3:12 AM To: isalist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [isalist] Failover Bandwidth Dear All I have ISA 2004 Standard on windows 2000 server as Firewall and proxy server. I have 2 MBPS link terminated to ISA server from ISP. We have dependency on one ISP only when ever it goes off work stops. We are planning for some redundancy of bandwidth. What option can we go for bandwidth failover? I had heard of RainConnect but don't find it anywhere on internet now. Please suggest few options to meet the requirement Sincerely, Shamshad Ahmad All mail to and from this domain is scrutinized by the Scrutinizer.
