You're right, it *is* a rather complicated-looking config (does this sound like an understatement?). The routing table is not too complicated, but the ruleset now has 250+ rules in it (and counting). There still is no performance problem. Of course, we used a P3 1GHz for it... :-) Oh, and I forgot to mention a 2-cpu Sangoma WAN card with 3 out of 4 ports used for leased lines... relax, just 128k ones ;-) The two systems are configured in a fail-over setup to provide high availability, and are housed in 19" 4U cabinets with an extremely nice feature: the bracket area is on the front side... There is one external segment, one for DMZ, one for internal servers, a couple for customers connecting through their lines or needing direct access to their database servers, the leased lines are SMS feeds from our local mobile phone operators, there are a bunch of internal segments and some VPN tunnels. Quite some population... But - that's why I like LEAF - it WORKS!!! Just *TRY* to do the same with Cisco and a limited budget...
