If you were Registered and logged in, you could reply and use other advanced thread options Interesting that you mention SSG series. After I posted here I looked at
SSG 140 and am now more inclined to go that route.
I will have a small network with only one 2003 server 64-bit Domain
Controller with Active Directory and Exchange 2007. We also have VoIP.
From what I've read about SSG 140 it can be my router to the internet as
well as route private IPs in the internal network.
Is SSG 140 an overkill for what I described above or should I go for SSG5?
I appreciate your input.
