  3. But before we start….

  4. …let’s refresh what proxy can do SG Family Internal Network Public Internet AV Family High Performance Appliances User Control URL Filtering Virus Scanning Instant Messenger Control Peer-to-Peer Block/Allow Per User Reporting Streaming splitting/caching/control Spyware blocking and reporting Application Acceleration (MACH5) Comprehensive, flexible content policies

  5. SGOS 5.2 What’s new in it?

  6. What’s New In SGOS 5.2 • A New License Platform with MACH5 Edition • New license edition matches hardware edition • Net-New Secure Web Gateway Features: • ICAP Trickle for better user experience • Try-Auth for alternative authentication policy • Improved user visibility and management • New WAN Optimization Features: • MAPI 2003 Proxy • Restricted Intercept for faster troubleshooting • Trust destination IP to improve DNS speed/resiliency

  7. Is There Any Reason to Use SGOS 4? • No. All Features are in SGOS 5.2 • 4.2.x is supported but not sold • All SG Appliances Ship with 5.2 • Exception – specific customers that require site certifications (e.g. US Federal) • We will offer a downgrade path to 4.2.x • SG5.x certification plans in process

  8. New licensing What’s changed?

  9. What’s Changed with our Licensing? • Specific MACH5 Edition License Available • Lower Price, Fewer Features • Keeps Differentiators (SSL, Video …) • Specifically no filtering = No Direct to Net • Proxy Edition Keeps All Features • Including MACH5 / ADN functionality • User Count Limits Introduced • Aligns HW Capabilities with SW for Sizing • Allow us to address “in-between” branch sizes

  10. Licensing Edition Details

  11. What Does all that Really Mean? • Proxy at the Branch, M5 at the Core • Equals Direct to the Net at a Better Price • Equals User-Based WAN Network Controls

  12. What Does all that Really Mean? • M5 at the Branch, M5 at the Core • Equals WAN Op that’s better than RVBD • Must Use Proxy at the Gateway! • Protects our Gateway Margin

  13. New Appliances Silver Bezels

  14. What Do Silver Bezels Mean to Me? • Legacy “Blue Boxes” are NOT EOL! • EOS 11/06/2007, no EOL before 2009 • More Options but only 10 HW Configs • Sizing in Matches HW Capabilities • A New Product Look / Feel

  15. Sizing Guide • License Limits = Recommended Total Desktops • No Limits on 8100 or -25 Appliances • TCP connections less relevant for our sizing • 10 TCP per 1 IP is a good ballpark

  16. What is the Upgrade Path? • For Silver Bezels to Other Silver Bezels • License Upgrade only for 510 – No Touch • HW & License 810, 8100 • Can upgrade MACH5 to Proxy • Proxy to MACH5 downgrades not reimbursed • From Blue Boxes to Silver Boxes • Upgrade is to Proxy Edition – same feature set • User License limits will apply! • Upgrade to “25” series has no user limits • Blue Boxes to 5.2 • Get Proxy Edition, no user limits apply
