This came in via the sunflash mailing list.  I thought it might be of
general interest to this list.  I am not associated with the company,
Sun, etc.

	Security and Internet Gateway Software
	All-in-one Firewall, Router and Network-manager

	80% of major Internet-connected sites have suffered hacking
	attempts.  ExFilter turns a Sun workstation running Solaris 1
	(SunOS 4.1.x) into a firewall, router and network-manager.  The
	Sun becomes a secure gateway between your network and the
	Internet, and between segments of the same network.

MONITOR TRAFFIC
---------------
Protect WANs and LANs by filtering traffic according to protocol,
source and destination.  ExFilter has extensive logging and tracing
features to enable thorough monitoring of the network for enhanced
security.

HALT HIGHWAY HOGS
-----------------
Bandwidth hogging by internal and external users saturates your
network links and makes them unusable.  ExFilter helps ensure all
users get good interactive response and `quenches' floods of TCP/IP
packets.

OPTIMISE BANDWIDTH
------------------
Internet links are often slow and inefficiently used.  ExFilter is
fully user-configurable---you optimise for interactive operations,
for certain types of traffic, and for levels of traffic.  ExFilter
intelligently exploits slow connections such as dial-up PPP links.

CONTROL ROUTING
---------------
Combined filtering and routing excludes traffic from unwanted
sources and limits free access through the firewall to trusted
sites and people, thus reducing the chances of invasion of your
system.  ExFilter implements static routing for maximum security,
preventing remote tampering with the filtering parameters.

SAVE MONEY
----------
ExFilter eliminates the need for expensive, dedicated
hardware---giving you more control over your system.  Even if you
buy a Sun to run ExFilter, you will have spent less than if you
bought a dedicated piece of hardware, and you will gain more
flexibility and have retained a familiar administration environment.
You can run other gateway services on the firewall such as a mail
forwarder, DNS, NTP, rftp, etc, at no additional cost.
