I am doing a new install of a Cisco VPN concentrator on our existing network
that contains a checkpoint firewall. Just trying to place it in the most
secure but best functional location. I guess the big question is parallel
to the firewall vs. on a DMZ. Cisco TAC won't provide design
recommendations (not sure why) so I'm looking for feedback from those out
there that have done this. Is the Cisco VPN concentrator secure enough to
completely bypass the firewall?

Opinions welcomed!!
