nuqneH,

PIX definitely does that, though i don't know if it really does it secure
way. Anybody here familliar with PIX internals? I'd like to know.
TIS Gauntlet does RA (as most firewalls do), PNA only, no RTSP. Yoy can
install rtspd on it, though, There were some rumours about H.323 proxy
but i haven't seen it.

H.323 is damn ugly thing. RA is better (a bit) but i think there could be
some security problems too.

I have a customer that will be standing up a new group and is looking at
implementing a firewall (yea !!).  However, they do have a strong
requirement to support VTC capability (H.323, T.120) streaming video,
real-audio and the like.  Luckily there are definite end-points external and
internal to the firewall that will be used to create the firewall rule sets.
What I need to know are what firewalls (proxy and stateful) that are
multi-media friendly and can handle these protocols with the least amount of
difficulty.  If anyone has any experiences good or bad using mutli-media
protocols with the Cisco PIX, Lucent Brick, Axent Raptor (NT or UNIX), TIS
Gauntlet would be appreciated.
