Cisco makes good networking products but their security products are lousy.
Instead of developing their own security IDS/IPS product line, it would be
better
for Cisco to acquire SourceFire.

migrate to the ASA
appliance, so they gave the customer a demo box. In the five days they had the
device in, it rebooted
about 10 times due to not being able to handle the traffic load, and completely
wigged out twice and
had to be hard reset.

Subject: [FW-1] Checkpoint vs. Cisco ASA
Hi,
Our company is considering replacing our Checkpoint firewall for a Cisco
ASA-5520 appliance. Does anyone on this list have any experience with ASA
box, and if so what is your opinion on them. We are currently running
R55 on our Corrent SR200 appliance, and are looking at migrating to a Dell
Poweredge 1950 server with R61/R62 (not sure which is best to go to).
I need some ammunition on pros/cons of Cisco compared to Checkpoint.
Any information would greatly be appreciated.
Thanks,
Sean
