Hi,
I've been asked to spec a firewall for the company I work for, and wanted to get peoples thoughts and advice before I start getting quotes in.
It's a small business with about 25 people in the office maximum, ideally the firewall would host a VPN server.
The firewall will be handling all layer 3 operations, though we won't have any vlans.. we just need a default route out to an ADSL interface.
I was considering a Cisco 5506-X with Firepower services, though I'm open to a Dell sonicwall or any other suggestions people put forward.
A silly question, but does the WAP function in the 5506W-X include the same functionality to that of a WLC? It would be great not to have to use a separate WLC with access points (we only need 3), but we need something fast and reliable.
The firewall would ideally have some kind of integration with our Windows active directory system also.
Does anybody have any suggestions or ideas?
Thanks
