here is my 2c on this issue:
Nokia: lousy platform. Support really sucks. Definitely finger-pointing
between Nokia and
Checkpoint when customers run into problem. It is NEVER a good idea to run
checkpoint
application software on top of an Operating System, IPSO in this case, because
you are
going to run into compability issue. I don't care if Nokia specifies Nokia as
an appliance,
it is still running IPSO with Checkpoint as application. I work for a Service
Provider and I
see this finger-pointing everyday between Nokia and Checkpoint.
Crossbeam: Same issue as Nokia.
Corrent: This is the best platform as far as I am concern because it runs
Checkpoint
SecurePlatform. The thing that I like about this is that if you do have
issues, you deal
directly with Checkpoint and there will be no finger-pointing from Checkpoint
to anyone
else because Checkpoint is responsible for the underlying OS, Redhat Linux in
this case,
as well.
As you may have already noticed, Checkpoint is famous for blaming the problem
on other
vendors. With SPLAT, checkpoint will have no choice but to help you fix the
problem.
That's another reason to stay from Nokia, Solaris, Crossbeam or Windows.
