    +1 for the SRX5308 I have been using these extensively with Multiple vendor large Chassis Switch's and I haven't run into any issues yet. Currently using Cisco HP and Nortel Networks switches for mixed L2/L3 routing configuration. I have multiple VPN devices on far sides connected to them...

    NETGEAR ProSafe SRX5308 Gigabit Quad WAN SSL VPN Firewall Reviewed

    it can easily Handle 5 Ip address's on one interface. Especially if they are in a single Subnet. Unlike other netgear firewall's where you assign the IP address's for your rules in the Rules themselves as "Another IP Address" on the 5308 you assign the ip to each interface on the...

    Another Quick Question for you. Are you using offset wireless connections for "full Duplex" connectivity on your wireless back haul(one to send and one to receive)? Seeing as you are trying to implement a link state based routing protocol it would be advised to look into things like that. Are...

    Question on Total Number of Connections

    Your ASA is actually Restricted to 10k Sessions unless you pony up the Cash for the "Enhanced License" aka "Security Plus" which enables a stated 25k sessions and Stateless Fail over and VLAN Trunking. I would have a hard time running that level of traffic through a 5505 when a 5510 would be a...

    Multi-gateway routing question

    Please Correct me if I am wrong but here is what I am taking out of this. You have Multiple RFC 1918 at each site NAT'd (one to One or Overload?) to Public's and those Publics are what are you wanting to route or is it a Mixed public/private IP range? Are your Wireless Bridge Devices in...

    Switch Recommendation Needed

    I have found that the latest Netgear Firewall's (FVX538/336G/SRX5308) Security Rules when combined with QOS tagging/Bandwidth Profiles/and Security Groups works pretty well when use the Default group. Take a bit of management but users automatically get assigned to group1 (guests) when they pop...

    Switch Recommendation Needed

    Throttling Bittorrent One of the "easiest" ways to throttle Bit torrent Traffic is to use an actual Bit Torrent Application that supports Bandwidth Control internally Like VUZE and TELL it how much bandwidth to use. http://www.vuze.com/

    RV042 VPN: Using a local IP on the remote site

    the easiest way for this to work would be to use the 192.168.19.0/24 network and cut it into 2 (two) /25's with one side residing at each site and a VPN tunnel between the sites. This will only work if the application isn't subnet aware and is hard coded to read the whole /24 independent of...

    VPN Site to SIte Ipsec, subnet questions

    As a hosting provider with multiple clients with LOTS of SA peers, I have found that it easier to recommend a random 10.X.X.X range with 5-10 /24 subnets in succession for growth. changing subnets is alot easier when combined with DHCP and using it more as an "assignment tool" than just a...
