Astaro Web Gateway AWG4000

Astaro’s new Web Gateway appliances are aimed at businesses that already have firewall and IPS solutions in place, and just want to add web content filtering at the gateway. The top-of-the-range AWG4000 is a good quality, if somewhat noisy, all-Supermicro affair of a 1U chassis and motherboard, offering a decent hardware specification. You get a 2.4GHz Xeon X3220 quad-core processor, partnered by 2GB of memory, and a 3Ware SATA PCI RAID controller card for storage.
