Hello red. Asking for advice here. Been using pfsense based appliance with snort and suricata with our small business network with some success. Recently security budged was somewhat increased and i started looking around for more advanced solutions. I already own and use PAN PA-200 (without a current license - we are not that big yet). I like advanced functionality like ssh proxying and user/app-id.
But license pricing for those devices puts them out of reach currently.
Now, ebay is rife with used firewalls. So I'm trying to decide, what device to get next - to put it into lab environment and explore. What I would be interested in most is low support/updates cost or even lack of (as with pfsense solutions).
I've been looking at some older Fortinet devices but aren't sure.
Thanks, red.
add: i use pfsense in transparent bridge mode and PA-200 in virtual wire config. also not looking for record speeds - 1gbps interfaces are ok and throughout of 100mbps in ids/ips mode would suffice.
