NimbostratusCheckpoint to AFM migration
Hi,
Anyone have migrated from checkpoint to AFM? As per AFM documents it seems that the device works as interface based firewall but any idea what all challenges will be there?
Thanks,
Hi,
I'm afraid that 'til today, there's no easy way to migrate from Checkpoint NGFW to BIG-IP AFM.
In BIG-IP AFM you could configure rules Globally, per Route Domain (if you combine this with Partitions it's similar to Cisco VRF/Isolated Zones/etc), per Virtual Server, per Self-IPs...
BIG-IP AFM is a high-performance, stateful, full-proxy security solution, with Geolocation, Protocol Anomaly Detection, Port-misuse protection, DoS and DDoS protection (DDoS auto-threshold), that can remotely triggered black hole filtering.
