Like many 3rd party apps, software HA/LB solutions such as RainWall and
StoneBeat don't run on the Nokia platform because it uses a proprietary
operating system (IPSO).  VRRP is adequate if you only want basic
failover to a standby unit.  If you want load balancing in addition to
HA, you'll have to shell out the big bucks for several pairs of external
appliances (a pair for each subnet), or consider Solaris/NT/Linux
instead of Nokia.  Others have suggested a variety of appliance vendors;
Alteon and Foundry are the two currently OPSEC certified to work with
FW-1.
