Our network is not that big.
We have about 40 workstations in our main office in Rotterdam and 15 in a branch office in Amsterdam. The branch office works on terminal sessions and can access the internet locally and by using a terminal sessions. The local internet access is secured by the firewall used in the building in which we are renting a floor. We have no access to that firewall but all is working as it should and all unneeded ports are closed. As far as I know they use a Cisco PIX on the building internet access.
Our main office is the office that will be moving to a new location soon. This move is also the trigger for a partial rebuild of our network. This rebuild includes the firewall/proxy we currently use (old Squid on even older Linux flavour). We need a firewall we can mange ourselves without calling an external company to do some changes and forking out some cash to them for the work they did. Usually it takes about a week before the changes are done. Two or three weeks are also common. Obviously this sucks and therefore we decided to scrap the current firewall when a new firewall is setup and working as it should.
MS ISA server would also be an option. I did not even think of it. I’ll add it to the "ToLookInto" list.
