>> I'm no expert by any stretch in the area of firewalls but we like what we
hear
other people are saying about the CISCO PIX 520...........all flames will be
ignored since I am ignorant.....

We looked at the CISCO products, among others, but for what we needed they were
overkill and _waaayyyyy_ expensive.  On recommendation from a couple of folks on
this list we looked at Sonicwall (www.sonicwall.com) and were delighted with
what we found.  We now have a Sonicwall Pro and couldn't be happier.  Even for
firewall neophytes such as ourselves configuration was a breeze and the
performance has been terrific.  The logging capability is probably the weakest
point but it is more than enough for our needs.  The Pro model also comes
equipped with VPN support which we'll be using soon.

We were so pleased that I'm planning on buying a SOHO model of the Sonicwall for
use in our home office.
