Anyway, it’s a hardware appliance, has very high processing power (depends on the model, but the one they recommended to us, 310B, it’s the best for us), and it’s an integrated security solution with support for tunneling, firewall, IDS, antivirus, antispam, web filtering, ..and…last but not least, traffic shaping.
