I've done Gig links successfully with Checkpoint on Nokia (you'd want 1220 or higher), and Netscreen (NS2000 or higher). Those models will support more than the throughput you need. The Nokia 710 claims 1.3GB, but I've seen backups tank a firewall so you will want to pad that a bit. I have no idea what can do what you need in PIX-land.

Hi List,
I do a lot with firewalls - Checkpoint, Netscreen, Cisco, etc. - but
have not yet needed a firewall that can do gigabit line speed.
Does anyone have a suggestion which product might be best to secure a gigibit link? I don't need an excessive rule base, the machine just needs to secure the gigabit at line speed. Huge backups run over this wire, and the firewall needs to controll which machines access the backup landscape and how.
Thanks!
Chris
