My biggest gripe with fp2000 was the unrestricted "read only" access to
telnet and snmp ports.

FP has been very responsive to customer feedback and v1.4.3  supports access
lists. There was also a nasty memory leak in earlier versions that would cause
the router to die for no apparant reason, they granted access to a beta
version that fixed it some time ago.

Looks like 1.43 will only take X chars.
