I know from the short time I worked for a Juniper reseller, the Juniper IPS has a separate box [very small] that does like a HA link to the IPS, so if the IPS fails, the traffic routed straight throught the network with no IPS Chris Serafin IT Security / VoIP Engineer chris () chrisserafin com -----Original Message----- From: geek_brigades () yahoo com [mailto:geek_brigades () yahoo com] Sent: Thursday, February 02, 2006 10:27 AM To: focus-ids () securityfocus com Subject: IPS Reliability/Availability I am working on a big IPS project and I am very concerned about installing an inline device in a core enterprise network, where these devices have the potential to create big time network outages. Can you, please, share your possible bad experiences about the reliability of the following inline IPS products: ISS TippingPoint Juniper IPS Sourcefire McAfee IntruShield Have you had any issues with the availability of these devices, such as fail close crashes or do you have any experience with bypass switches that would mitigate the availability issue?
