Checkpoint to PIX Migration Question

[arslaner]

Hello,

We are planning to migrate from Checkpoint Firewall-1 to FWSM for one of our departments.. Checkpoint has a "client authentication" feature..

Is there an equivalent or similar feature in FWSM ?

Any help will be appreciated...

Thank you..

I have helped a customer implement user based authentication & authorization for access through the FWSM.

So as users attempt to access any resource on the other side the FWSM, the user is prompted to authenticate.

Here's a link to AAA for the FWSM:

Look specifically for the following if the above is what you would like to accomplish:

- Configuring Authentication for Network Access

- Configuring Authorization for Network Access

thanks
