Hello,

I need a little help/info regarding 
Nortel's Contivity Extranet Switch and 
what the heck it is and is not able to 
do.  I would love to RTFM but I've been 
given three firewall platforms to hook 
up production VPNs to within two weeks 
and I'm a little pressed for time.

What I do know is that there is a 
Contivity firewall option and an FW-1 
option.  I just crashed through FW-1 
training last week so I'm familiar 
with that, more or less.  My requirement 
is to set up a site-to-site VPN using 
Nortel Contivity switches on both ends, 
running an IKE/IPsec tunnel that only 
allows our "encryption domain" boxes to 
speak with each other, in FW-1 parlance.

Pretty straightforward with PIX and FW-1 
but I'm still unclear as to the 
capabilities of the Nortel stuff.  Any 
tips, info, or pointers to doc are very 
welcome.  If I'm missing the obvious 
(like this product sucks or I'm an idiot), 
let me know.  Thanks.
