Firewall needed

Burnsy2023 · 20 Mar 2009 at 22:25

I need a firewall for Server 2008 32bit which has very verbose logging of attempted attacks. Any suggestions?

Also how good is ISA server 2006 logging?

Is it not already within a network?

If its by its self in a small network, how about a small cisco pix 501 with logging turned on.

Can pick them up on the bay with 10 vpn users.

Watchguard firebox, cant reccomend a specific model without knowing how big your network is.

Logging is very comprehensive and they come in a cool paintjob :cool:

This is for a very small network (about 10-15 users) and there's only one server which the firewall needs to be installed on, but it's been getting a pounding by some indonesian attacker.

So needs to be a software box

Even on a 10 user network, a software firewall is a bad idea...

The main reason for it is to log IPs etc for terminal server sessions etc, either way hardware is not on the cards unfortunately.

If you are just after some logging then what about Agnitum Outpost Pro software firewall? I use it at home and the logging looks to be good.
