Hi Dave,
I have used this in a few setups with no problems. The SS3 firewall will
do 3DES encryption at up to 45mb/s throughput. If you plan on using any
of the office connect firewall 25s at the remote site remember they can
only really get to around 256k throughput at DES encryption (they are
fine in normal internet use as a firewall, just the encryption, so if
your bandwith into these places is greater go for the SS3 ones.
