IPS Reliability/Availability

Subject: IPS Reliability/Availability
Date: 2 Feb 2006 16:26:42 -0000
I am working on a big IPS project and I am very concerned about installing an 
inline device in a core enterprise network, where these devices have the 
potential to create big time network outages. 

Can you, please, share your possible bad experiences about the reliability of 
the following inline IPS products:

ISS
TippingPoint
Juniper IPS
Sourcefire
McAfee IntruShield

Have you had any issues with the availability of these devices, such as fail 
close crashes or do you have any experience with bypass switches that would 
mitigate the availability issue?

Thanks,
Mike
