- Demonstration of Watch Guard by Mr. Takeda
Watch Guard was displayed at ADAMNET booth in Linux World Conference
which was held same day. I asked Mr.Takeda to bring it to meeting.
Watch Guard is firewall. This product is managed via web and the body
is the same as PC/AT and Linux. But it use flash memory instead of disk
then so it is safe when the power goes down.
I hope this kind of product becomes more available in the market.
