Hi Ray,
Nice analysis and I especially appreciate the kind words about the list. The
ISAServer.org Web site and boards are the same way. Lots of people there
helping other people and flames are almost non-existant.
I think if you have a primarily MS shop, and if you need to allow remote access
to MS network services (Exchange, Sharepoint, VPN, etc) then ISA is the ideal
firewall, whether its at the edge of the departmental LAN, or the edge of the
entire network. If there is one thing that limits its overall general appeal is
its LAT based architecture. However, if you practice good defense in depth,
this is almost a non-issue.
You're right about mixed environments. The firewall client is one of the most
compelling reasons to use ISA because it gives you the greatest flexibility and
control. The firewall client is also completely transparent and has never
broken a single app I know of. However, DNS resolution issues are a real
problem for those who don't understand them and the firewall client is
dependent on name resolution.
All in all, I like ISA and I like the people who work with it :-)
Thanks!
Tom
