Thanks Stuart, looks like Andy did a good job on Tuesday! Remind me to buy
you a pint when we meet.

There's a load of QoS functionality in IPSO 4.2 which (supposedly)
offers an alternative to Floodgate, I haven't looked at it in any detail
yet. The advantage being if you use the QoS in Nokia the traffic can
still be accelerated (unlike Floodgate traffic) and obviously SecureXL
is free within Nokia. Note as of IPSO 4.2 SecureXL is now switched on by
default for new installs (will still be off for upgrades). So in theory
going forward if you have a Nokia box there's no need to go for the
Power licenses (you can just go UTM) as you get acceleration and
bandwidth management for free.

Cheers
Stu
