BSD TODAY: RUNNING A BSD-BASED FIREWALL


"When you buy a commercial firewall product, you are
not buying a better quality product, but only paying for
a                   name. That name gives your management and
you confidence that there is a strong, solid company behind
your                   firewall. With an open source firewall,
you do not get that name."
