Digital's Services organization does bundle a firewall service where they
install your firewall and do some security consulting, but the AltaVista
firewall products can be bought as shrink-wrapped software and installed
quite easily by anyone. There's no requirement that the installation be
done by Digital personnel.

Are you going to run this on a cluster ??
I have been at a site where the firewall was installed and can tell you
that
you might want to pay to have the Digital people do the install. If you
have
further questions drop a note with more specifics about your requirements.
