Product Not Viable for AWS
I couldn't get the firewall to do simple NAT translation. I called Barracuda technical support and they told me they new nothing about the AWS implementation so I shut it down a day later. I did get a different firewall to work just fine in the same environment.
Excellent client to site VPN solution
Client needed a client to site VPN solution - they didn't want to use an open source solution and did not want to have a Windows server (RRAS) for this. This solution is firewall and VPN but was implemented for client to site VPN for access to their AWS VPC in the event of a disaster. We may expand functionality in the future but right now we are happy to have the secure client-site solution working. Product was relatively easy to configure with the documentation provided. We did reach out to tech support to help fine tune configuration and their tech support was excellent - knowledgeable engineer reached on the first call and issue resolved in the single call. Very happy with the choice and important to know that good tech support is available if needed.
Good Solution. I
I decided to buy the version, after making the trial. It's quite flexible and complete solution. Excellent application to manage by remote console.
