As much as I hate to follow up my own post, I suppose I was a bit too vauge for my own good =] We do not run any cisco gear and we are in a Class A data facility. By proxy I did not mean to imply NAT. I cannot remember the proper term but what I mean is full packet handeling as opposed to packet inspection. Security is important but the budget limit is only up to about 3K. I have been trying to get the client a firewall for some time and am just now getting the go ahead. Sorry for any vaugeness but I usually like to not say to much as to sway opinions one way or another and to learn more as any knowlege I have may be wrong or out of date.
