They are a tad pricey but they look nice, work well, and are extremely easy to deploy. They used to have poor NAT support but with the 2.0.x firmware, it's getting better. They can be provisioned with FTP, TFTP, HTTP, and HTTPS. The only complaint that I have with them is that their provisioning file format makes XML developers cry in sorrow. -- Charles Ulrich Ideal Solution, LLC -- http://www.idealso.com
