Specific answer to your points:
- ability for building complex packet filtering rules for layer 3
[Jim] - you need to be able to write in C (preferably C++) to accomplish
this - the ISA SDK on the CD can help you along
- ability for building packet filtering rules for layer 2
[Jim] ISA has no support for L2 - it operates at L3+
- ability for building complex packet inspection and reaction
[Jim] - See my answer to your first post
- a nice gui
[Jim] - got that
- a good central management of diferent firewalls, to take a simple
example the two firewalls of a dmz
[Jim] - depends on your deployment and rules between firewalls.
- connection failover ability
[Jim] EE provides for NLB; SE does not
- maybe proxy funktionality.
[Jim][ been part of the product since ISA 2000

Subject: [isalist] RE: some general questions about isa server 2004
http://www.ISAserver.org
first of all thanks to John Tolmachoff for the links.
What i want to with isa? Ok, i do a study in informatiks and after 2,5
years i'm in the 6 semester. The last two years i spend on learning
stupid
and good things @ my university. Since a half year i'm administrating
the
wlan of our university based on a freeradius server (with a ldap
interface
to the novel based client-server architecture of our university), damn
cool cisco accesspoints and an debian based gateway with nat,
trafficaccounting and so on. (clients authenticate using ttls and inner
pap, encrypted using wep with rapid rekeying). At home i used a debian
too, but a half year ago i heard about a microsoft solution called isa
server...
So what i am expecting of ISA server is:
- ability for building complex packet filtering rules for layer 3
- ability for building packet filtering rules for layer 2
- ability for building complex packet inspection and reaction
- a nice gui
- a good central management of diferent firewalls, to take a simple
example the two firewalls of a dmz
- connection failover ability
- maybe proxy funktionality.
i will read the the linked sites to find out. maybe somebody could tell
me
his experiences using ISA for this 7 points.
again thanks for the quick answers
Richard
