FYI -

The Firewall in the NOC at Interop Las Vegas and Atlanta
this year was partially on ATM.  I can't speak for the Las
Vegas design (I didn't build it), but the Atlanta design was
a three interface system consisting of:

- 10 Mbps Ethernet    - Inside Interface 1
- 155 Mbps ATM (LANE) - Inside Interface 2
- 100 Mbps FDDI       - Outside Interface

The base system was a Sun SparcStation 20, running SunOS 4.1.4
and TIS Gauntlet 3.1.1.  The FDDI and ATM boards came from
Interphase.  

Cheers,
John
