If you mean PA=Palo Alto, they are dead on (scary CCIE would say that being 
from the CISCO house) I work on Palo Alto Daily, and its sick how much these 
things can do.  Been finding a lot that I wouldn’t have been able to obtain but 
regular firewall log parsing, and being able to quantifiy you own applications 
and make traffic rules based on them is pretty killer.

I have two CCIE's that work for me.  Both also used to work for a Cisco VAR - 
so obviously Cisco bigots.  They both recommended PA to me over the ASA.  From 
a security perspective, the PA do so much more than ASAs.  We still use ASAs 
for some intranet firewalls.

Are you using the Cisco controllers with your WAPs?  If so, they have captive 
portal capability.  They call it Lobby Ambassador.

Our Sidewinders are EOL at the end of April, and my manager doesn't like them.

He's a Cisco bigot, and wants ASAs in here.

I'm fighting him to at least take a look at the Palo Alto platform, or
perhaps the newest iteration of the Sidewinders (which are now called
McAfee Enteprise Firewalls).

That's an interesting tip on the Sophos solution. What did you use for
the hardware?
