Tell them that IP Filter is the software which protects Firewall-1 from the Internet when running on Solaris - you have to go with naked FW-1 on NT. There are two factors to this equation, however. FW-1 is typically deployed on Solaris/NT machines although now the Nokia box makes up a large number of those sales. The Nokia boxes run IPSO which was, long ago, FreeBSD (I'm told it no longer bears much resemblence).
