Hi all

We currently run Juniper NetScreen 5200 firewall and are looking for replac=
ements, since these are doomed by Juniper and they are ready to be replaced=
. Their replacement is the SRX series, but since we need buy some replaceme=
nts we feel that the rest of the market is worth looking at.

Could any of you out there share experiences with other brand, specific mod=
els. Our setup will be implemented as described in the Cisco SAFE reference=
 guide, with dedicated border routers and firewall behind those. The functi=
onal requirements we have is filtering and nat, ids/ips is a nice-to-have b=
uilt-in feature.  Stability  and performance are off course also a demand. =
We currently have 10G ethernet both as peerings and core network.

Contact me off the list if you want to remain anonymous.

Thanks in advance

Best regards
