firewall recommendation request Rick Merrill 12-28-2006

I'm looking for a Hardware Firewall that can
be given a whitelist of IP addresses to permit
to use FTP.

In looking at some possibilities I have not been able to see
this specific capability!

Thanks.

Most firewall appliances do this, in fact, those that don't offer this
ability are not really firewalls, they are most likely NAT routers
claiming to be firewalls.

The cheapest solution I know if, hardware, is the DFL-700 series
firewall from D-Link, the best solutions I know of come from WatchGuard,
but neither company makes a "cheap" solution, they start around $300 and
up.

Thanks!!!! I've contacted WatchGuard and they're sending a quote and a
URL for a manual!

Well, their man recommended the "X10E" (12 x ports 10/100) - sounds
like overkill for what I need.
