Here at Oakland University we are in the process of implementing distributed firewall architecture. The clear benefit is this architecture allows us to strengthen and protect our three distinct networks. (Administrative, Academic, and Student) Managing more than one central firewall appears to be the only drawback, but I would take that any day. Christopher R.

I am curious as to what experiences other Universities might have with this type of architecture or layout? Or, are other Universities doing this type of layout. Any information would be great. thanks Charles Crawford University of Kansas IT Security Officer (785)864-0491 ccrawf () ku edu ********** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Discussion Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/memdir/cg/. ********** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Discussion Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/memdir/cg/.
