We need roughly 10 VPN connections. Weâre currently using iptables on a Fedora box, but the new management would like something with corporate support options, so the Linux firewall will become the internal network firewall, and weâll be implementing this new firewall as the bastion. Iâm looking into Cisco PIX firewalls, Checkpoint, Juniper networks, and Sonicwall, but with the marketing mumbo-jumbo itâs hard to work out what the benefits of each are. Does anyone have any real-world experience with any of these firewalls, and if so, would you be willing to share your stories? Iâd much appreciate some experienced points of view.
