<div><br></div><div>But most of those are what I call 'fringe vendors' with minimal online information, communities, or expertise available without high cost.  So I would stick to vendors where you can easily get expertise.</div>

<br>
So I am looking to put together some rough budgetary numbers, nothing exact more of a feel for the market.<br>

Looking for a 2 node cluster Firewall with 10G ports say min 2. L3 FW<br>

What sort of price range would I be looking for<br>

I know its broad, just want to get a feel for the range of price..<br>
