We are considering upgrading our FW from Solaris/4.1 to Secure
Platform/NG... does anyone have any recommendations for a HW vendor? We
prefer to use Compaq boxes but realize the Linux drivers in the Secure
Platform install may prefer one vendor over the other. Also, the specs for
the HW platform required is extremely low end... do you have any feedback
(good or bad) that can provide based on your experiences with Secure
Platform.... it seems to good to be true. We had a check already made out to
purchase two Nokia IP530's, and this solution cuts our cost considerably!

-What HW platform are you using, incl specs?
-What is your required throughput? (We have two 10Mbps Internet
connections.)
-Were their any hick-ups during the install?
-Has the device been 100% reliable since install?

Thanks,
Mike Kilpatrick
