We did an analysis of our existing Nokia
firewall and detected that it was dropping data
packets at peak demand periods with the follow-on
effect of reduced Internet access
performanceAfter we installed an accelerated
firewall from Nortel, the schools web access in
particular became several times faster. Rob
Hathway, Principal IT Consultant, Cardiff Council

Providing secure remote access to the Sun ONE

manage. Hytham Khalil, Director MedIT,
