(Redirected from Next Generation Firewall) ...
As is, this article (and the redirect for `Next generation firewall') suggests that this particular firewall is the only `next generation firewall' out there, and is therefore better than everything else out there. NPOV violation? If others agree, I'd suggest either 1) adding other firewalls that have similar functionality, or 2) removing the redirect. (The article for Stateful firewall has a link for Next Generation Firewall.)

- I don't think it was an NPOV issue, but rather that the name of the CheckPoint product line at one point was "Next Generation". At any rate, that branding name has been minmized, so I doubt anybody would search for it. I think we could remove the redirect. --Bill.matthews 16:47, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
i agree to remove the redirect, reading it i felt like that checkpoint's firewall was the only "NG" firewall. beside, its not really next generation anyway, statefull and lvl7 filtering have been around for YEARS ^^
