Network World did a review of 13 All-in-one firewalls a couple of weeks
ago. I would recommend reviewing it as it may help you determine which
firewalls would best fit your needs. 

Here is the article:

Subject: Hardware Firewall recommendations

Hi,

I'm investigating the purchase of a hardware firewall.  I'm hoping 
people here could point me in the right direction, if not give 
recommendations.

I've got two separate connections, one to a individual server and one to

a small LAN of several servers. The need for the two separate incoming 
pipes is because we're billed individually for the bandwidth usage.  I 
would rather buy one box that can handle both of these connections 
instead of two boxes, mainly to ease the administration but this isn't 
essential. 

This should make sense, thanks,

Chris -.
