Default Re: Setting up DNS Proxy

You are looking at an external load balancer like an F5, I haven't used them myself but when chatting with Nokia about this sort of thing they talk about F5 load balancers.

IPSO 4.2 seems to have some settings regarding external load balancers however wether this works with the Nokia running Check Point I don't know.

They aren't particularly cheap but the alternative is some big complex BGP installation, which is possibly overkill for you.

The Check Point ISP Redundancy is a pretty basic system in my opinion, and is a good way of migrating ISP's I have found but is suitable really only for the SMB market, who are unlikely to be running there own DNS Servers.

From what I have seen of them then the Stonesoft Firewall's implementation is better, and the interface looks remarkably Check Point like, as the developers are ex Check Point.
