For small networks with 250 nodes or less, what/how are you all
protecting your servers? Windows firewall, 3rd part vendor, or just
standard Windows security?

I have a small network but using a Cisco Pix to protect the network.
The Pix is fairly easy to manage once you get used to the PDM and console
configuration isn't bad either if you prefer no GUI.

Securing the network from other subnets and the Internet. Switches and
routers are managed by another team.

This sort of application is something that a little Pix works well for -
something like a 515E.

I've also seen a bunch of those Sonicwalls and Fireboxes as well in this
market.

Thanks,

Anti Spam
Firewall

Yeah, a Nokia running Checkpoint is really expensive, and probably way
out of budget for what the OP is looking for if I had to hazard a guess. I
think Pix and Checkpoint and others all have their places. For a small business
looking for an Internet firewall, I think a mid-end pix fits the bill pretty
well.



Thanks,
Brian Desmond

I don't like Pix's, hate how they are managed and I think the interface
is bad.



I prefer Netscreen and Nokia (or a server running Checkpoint, but the
Nokias are better for most instances). For a small company ISA Server might be
an option as well, it is a lot better in the latest version than it was in the
past. I still like little appliances like the Nokia though.

I™ve used the Netscreen SMB stuff and the SonicWalls once. Saw a
Netgear one but didn™t play with it and the interface suggested it had a
pretty good feature set. Agreed they™re all worth looking at. Its ahrd to
recommend any one make/model without some more solid requirements from the OP
