In an environment with a single network connection to the Internet guarded
by a firewall, what's the best strategy for providing fault-tolerance to
this connection?
A few things we're looking at:
- aggressive service and response-time (< 2 hrs) requirements for firewall HW
- a "standby" preconfigured firewall HW box that we'd plug in if primary down
- in case of firewall failure, fall back on router packet filtering
without a firewall in place.
Comments? What are you doing?
