Firewall Wizards: Re: Sonicwall or Watchguard

[Eric Budke <budke () budke com>]

I can't speak from an administration standpoint, but from a user 
standpoint, my company's Watchguard sucks.
It requires a reboot to update rules (from what I understand they are 
running it on linux, so this really makes little sense.) And the "VPN" 
solution is really false advertising. It just opens up a hole in your 
firewall. If you are using any sort of NAT, you have now opened up a whole 
in your firewall for all the other users behind that nat to get in.
