WatchGuard Firebox X550e
Jul 25, 2009
I have a small rack of 15 servers (mostly running CPU intensive applications). Our average bandwidth consumption is a consistent 7mbps between all servers. I was researching to find a solution to filter incoming and outgoing email (provide hosting to a few people on one of the boxes), to prevent spammers from getting in or the occassional customer turned spammer from getting outbound.
I was considering the Firebox X Core x550e, to put in front of our units. Has any one had any experiance with them first hand? Can the unit handle it? It says 25,000 concurrent sessions, I don't think I have 25,000 concurrent sessions ever at any giving time going out bound....

I 'recently' got a FireBox v60 to replace my Fortigate 50's.
I didn't know the Firebox needed software to configure it or get it going... As i got it off eBay...

I am considering on implementing a new firewall in our colo which would have about 10 servers behind it which generates on averages 2.314 megabits/sec for everything.
I am looking at the new Watchguard x750e running version 10 of Fireware which seem like a good fit without breaking the bank but I have also thought of simply implementing a Poweredge server running CentOS and running an IPtables config to provide firewall services.
Anybody have any Feedback on the Watchguard unit or use a Watchguard product in their setup and can comment?

Anyone using a Watchguard firewall X750e or other in a past or current setup which can provide me with some feedback on their experience?
I am looking at introducing a Firebox running Fireware 10.

I have 2 locations, one with a Watchguard Firebox II/1000 and the other with a Cisco ASA 5520. I have configured a VPN between them and have run into a snag. The VPN tunnel works fine until it expires, but there is a significant lag in re-establishing the tunnel. The lag is enough to cause Backup and Data transfer failures due to timeouts.
Does anyone know how to configure the VPN tunnel to never expire, regardless of uptime or traffic volume? The Cisco doesn't seem to want to let me configure either phase for 0 or infinate kb expiration.

We're thinking about purchasing the firebox x750e. Any experience with these? I see a lot of negative feedback on the x500 series but could not find anything on the x700s.
Does the watchguard, netscreen, and sonticwall firewalls all require an annual renewal fee?
I see some x700s on ebay for under $500. What's bad about buying these used ones?
