Tipping Point IPS systems

[Ryan Sumida <rsumida () csulb edu>]

Not sure if I should be posting to this list but didn't know where else to 
ask.

I've seen a few posts on network protection devices such as Netscreen, 
Checkpoint and Fortigate products but I haven't seen anything on Tipping 
Point.  Of any of you that have used a Tipping Point box, how does it 
compare to the others?  I'm aware of the bugs in the reporting features, 
I'm more interested in hearing how effective their filters work especially 
under heavy conditions.

Thanks
Ryan
