Info Request: Looking for alternatives in HA/Load balancing firewalls that are also scalable and modular. . .

["Keith A. Glass" <salgak () speakeasy net>]

. . . .Here's my situation:

We're currently spec'ing functional requirements for a new web-based 
implementation of a number of enterprise apps.  One obvious problem is 
the firewall system: it needs to be both load-balancing and 
high-availability, AND scalable.  We're still getting a feel for 
potential traffic, but we expect to have a requirement for in-line 
expansion of the system while remaining online.

One of the obvious candidates is the Nortel Alteon platform, but that 
also limits us to FW-1.   We're nowhere close to downselect on a 
platform or a firewall, but I'm looking for alternative platforms to 
start getting info on, so we can make sure the requirements we develop 
can actually be IMPLEMENTED in reality. . .

Any help out there would be greatly appreciated. . . .
