hi there,
ok so as far as firewall experience goes i'm a juniper netscreen guy... but i'm now looking for new employment and there isn't a huge amount of work around here. i've been taught by way of principles, so believe that picking up and running with pix and checkpoint ought to be fairly straightforward.
i've managed to snag a pix 515e running v6.x code with an extra fast ethernet card installed, which whilst not exactly the newest piece of kit available, it still seems to support a decent amount of stuff, and i think it is worth learning... plus it hasn't cost me anything either, so result!
so, onto checkpoint... been checking out the bay and there are some 'nokia ip330 firewall checkpoint ipso' available for much cheapness. they are advertised as 'returned to factory defaults'. i've contacted the guy to find out a bit more about them...
...but thought someone on here may be able to offer some advice too.
many thanks.
