Which firewall is best?

Question

Computer networks

Good afternoon. I have such a question, I have an enterprise with a computer park + -100. There is a computer, a regular one, in which an additional network card is installed and the kerio control 7 software is installed on it. All traffic to the enterprise passes through it. I use Kerio to account for IP addresses, control consumed traffic, and so on, so in fact I need it not for security, but for control and accounting. The enterprise also has three subnets for convenience.
The question is, Kerio is already a very old version and I want to switch to a newer version. I assembled a computer on board with kerio control version 9, but for some reason I can’t get it to work. Are there any analogues in a hardware firewall, where I can also group IP addresses, cut speed for certain groups, and so on. Well, of course, you need the stability of the equipment. I came across the Cisco Firepower Hardware Firewall series, but I don’t know if it has such functions as I need.

Answer 1

Why not do it in the normal way through decisions about CheckpPoint for example? 3200 version + backup, for the eyes of such a PC volume is enough. VPN through their MAB CP.

Answer 2

1. If you can't get Kerio to work, contact their technical support.
2. Don't want Kerio - take another product that you have already studied.
3. Do not understand what you need - study the products, make a table of functionality for comparison, look for additional information.
4. Not enough knowledge - learn. And it will turn out that you will again come with the question - why the next product that you rush to implement does not work.
5. If you don't want to study, hire specialists.

Answer 3

Hardware firewalls cost money.
The more bells and whistles you want, the more expensive. Plus, licenses and subscriptions may still be required. Which also cost money.
If Kerio is weak for you - build a firewall yourself
Linux + Iptables + other to help you
Well, or FreeBSD + PF
But there is a command line and no conveniences. But if you don’t make stupid rules, no one will break you
