Some firewall vendors are proposing to collapse all Internet edge functions=
into a single device (border router, firewall, IPS, caching engine, proxy,=
etc.). A general Internet edge design principle has been the "defense in d=
epth" concept. Is anyone collapsing all Internet edge functions into one de=
vice?

David
