[cobalt-users] netra x1

["Danny Daniels" <dcd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have a small server farm consisting of 4 RAQ server. I want to put a
general purpose firewall  in front of my RAQ servers as another layer of
security.
Because space is a consideration I need to limit my self to a 2ru server. I
was considering purchasing another RAQ server and set it up as a firewall
how ever I do not need the GUI. Setting that up seems like allot of work. I
then came across the SUN netra x1. It seems like maybe a good fit.

1. Question: Has anyone reconfigured their RAQ server to function as a
firewall in this manor.

2. Question: (Some what related : Has any one used a SUN Netra 2RU server) I
am not sure what to expect as I have never used Solaris before. I come from
the Unix on Intel camp (SCO)

 Any input from other RAQ users is really appreciated.

 Thanks
 -Danny
