Subject: New Checkpoint appliances [EMAIL PROTECTED] ?

Hi Checkpointers,

we are intend to use the new Checkpoint

**********************
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Appliances
**********************

and are very interested in feedback from
people who already started to use it. Any responses to
some of the questions below would be greatly
appreciated.

- is it based on Checkpoint "Small Office Software" ?
  does the WebGui was improved in the Appliance ?

No, they called it Embedded NG (does not support
SmartDefense, AI, QoS,Load sharing...)
If you have CP SmartCenter, you can use VPN-1 Edge
instead.  Since the [EMAIL PROTECTED] is for one single
office management locally (no central management).
VPN-1 Edge can be managed by SmartCenter centrally.

- is there a cost free Management Server bundled like
  in former CP small Office Versions ?
No.  The Management server bundles is for a short
period of time.  Then even u buy SmallOffice, you only
can use the WebGUI.
Both [EMAIL PROTECTED] & VPN-1 Edge have WebGUI.  From the
latest firmware, you can customize the firewall rules
in the WebGUI.

- Management only by WebGui or also from Management
Server
  (Smart Center Server)
  Handling of the rules with the WebGui ?
Only VPN-1 Edge can be management by SmartCenter.

Here's the details for the diff between [EMAIL PROTECTED] &
VPN-1 Edge
