Re: Firewall Vendors

We use Palo Alto.  Not sure what you are using the packetshaper for, but, the PA may also be able to help there.  We do 
use the Palo Alto to block applications, and it's successful, but, not 100%.

Greetings,

At Maryville we currently use a Sonicwall firewall that is rapidly reaching end of life and are starting to explore 
alternative vendors.  Curious which vendors and models others are using for your firewall solution.  We also use 
Packetshaper as part of our solution and we would consider a single firewall device and eliminate the use of 
Packetshaper if we can find the right solution.

Regards,

Rick.
