Nokia IP 330's are simply AMD K6-II clone PC systems. Low end off
the shelf PC hardware. On Sun hardware it will definitely be faster,
but if you have nice new P-4 systems, I can't see the Nokia's giving
anywhere near the performance of Linux on a new P-4 with 512MB of
RAM. Checkpoint does have some super-duper hardened RedHat offering
as well, not sure what it is called offhand.

NOKIA is king. We run nothing but Nokia here. The hardware is
robust, and
we use VRRP between two units for redundancy. Can be expensive
though ...

Subject: Checkpoing NG on Linux or Windows?
Hello everyone,
We're about to migrate to Checkpoint NG soon, and I've been tasked to
gather
data to determine which version of OS we will run our software on.
We have
already purchased 6 Dell systems (I'm unsure of specs), so the
choices are
Windows NT, 2000, or a Linux flavor. I'm looking for
recommendations, and
perhaps links to performance ratings to use as a comparison for each.
Also,
I'd love to hear the horror stories, so I'm not as blind sided as I
was with
our McAfee WebShield from months past!
Thanks for your help guys.
