The Web-based GUI is intuitive, and where possible, the rules interface strives to give the look and feel of each type of firewall. For example, it mimics the Check Point interface when viewing and managing firewalls from a SmartCenter NG system, which is nice, but we'd like the ability to switch to a standardized view of rules across all platforms. You can use SecureTrack to manage Check Point, Cisco PIX and Juniper firewalls, but, in the current version, most of the key features are limited or nonexistent for the latter two.

A straightforward wizard is used to add a firewall to the system. SecureTrack passively pulls down the configuration and status of each firewall. You can view the rules and policy information side-by-side, so reviewing changes and other pertinent information is easy.
