Robert,

TippingPoint IPS have been a real success at the University of Tennessee.

We are actually in the middle of a  firewall eval.  We just called Fortinet=
.  What it is that you are not impressed about?

Subject: Security appliance options

Good morning,

What is everyone using for security appliances?

We've had fortinet products on campus for a few years and are not terribly =
impressed.

We're really just looking for some basic AV/IPS protection, maybe some spam=
 blocking.

The fortigate was a great idea for multiple layers in addition to our main =
firewalls and mail system, but the product hasn't impressed and the sales s=
upport is also not very enthusiastic.

What type of stand alone products are people using out there?

Thanks!
