Review: Nokia IP380

The Nokia-Check Point partnership has been a successful one, combining Nokia's excellent hardware implementation with Check Point's proven security technology, as we can see with the IP380. Aimed at the small enterprise or branch office, the IP380 comes with a cryptographic accelerator, capable of 130Mbps of 3DES VPN traffic and four Fast Ethernet ports. With two spare slots in the 1U chassis, you can upgrade network capability at a later date.

Review: Pro 5060f

Review: Pro 5060f

Better known for its smaller appliances, SonicWall has pushed into the enterprise market with its Pro 5060f. Running SonicOS Enhanced 3.1, the 1U appliance houses a 2.4GHz Intel Xeon processor, 512MB of RAM and six Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. The 'f' in our model signifies that two of these ports are multimode fiber, but you can buy a 5060 with six copper ports.
