2 Questions:
I want do some major subnetting on our network to help secure it better.
Currently, everything is routed by a Catalyst 5500 series with 3 trays
of Fiber for our internal network.
I also want to put some machines on with a Free IDS like snort to
monitor packets.
Q1: Any recommedations for a good commerical router that is easy to manage, does
stateful packet filtering,
and is not over $3000 ?
( If funding is regected, I think I will be looking at the Linux router
project. I just would rather get a simplier to setup/manage commerical box. )
Q2: What type of machine would I need to run Snort to monitor all
incoming and outgoing packets (RAM, CPU, HardDrive Size, Network Card ?)
Currently, we have 6 T1 coming into 1 Cisco 7500 Series VXR.
