That's the option I'm thinking off. However, I'm worried that I might have
to put 3 firewalls in there as the bandwith would be too big. The guys
that I work with reckon that with our "standard" firewall-1 build, the
machines can only handle 60 Mbps... and I'll need to put three of those to
achieve 155 Mbps. That's a lot of admin work compared with, as you say,
the PIXes. There there's only 1 conf to do, no OS to patch, etc, etc,
etc...
