    Hi,

    Someone has positive or negative experience running
    Checkpoint IPS cluster over ``long distance'' synch.
    network? Real life limitations? Alternatives? Timers?


You can do "stretched" with Check Point as long as the network delay
is less than around 70-100 msec RTT or so. If you do this, run your
firewalls in Active/Standby modes.


Thanks Eugeniu, I see what you mean. The specific case I'm looking at is
about asymmetric routing, though.


Cheers,
