[QUOTE="vansmith, post: 1535480, member: 71075"] Yes, adding more layers increases complexity but you're assuming that the two overlap and aren't mutually exclusive in any respect. SFs can work on a per-application basis (something hardware firewalls can't do) and protect machines behind the firewall from each other. SFs are also better suited to regulating outgoing traffic (as far as I can tell), something that it inherits from the per-application functionality. [/QUOTE]
