Our campus currently has Fortinet firewalls, and have been a little unhappy with them. So we are starting the process of looking for something new. Has anybody worked with Juniper SSG 550 firewalls?
We have a large installed base of Juniper firewalls. We are moving to SSG550's as a replacement for our NS208's. We ran into serious instability issues with the first SSG550 we deployed. We pulled it out of production and it rolled on us just sitting in the lab. Several code upgrades later it is stable enough we are about to put it back into production. It looks like they were released too early but now they appear to be ready for prime time. The price point on the SSG550's makes them an economical gig capable firewall. This is why we didn't give up on them when we had problems initially. I can dig up the stable code version info if anyone needs it. - -PaulK -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFrmqKO9nILSaZJPsRAtw2AJwPC8wZBVtZYkfnm9uFdvUFSt80FwCfazYp UDIUINc5L2E6Ii6sMtX9A4Y= =Exh0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
