Firewall Appliance allowing white list - blocking all other traffic

Tags: any available, firewalls, any
Are you aware of any firewall appliances under $300 that would block all internet traffic except to sites that are allowed via a white list?  We have a chain of stores with one or two computers in each store that have internet access so that employees can access a web site to clock in, and also connect to the home office through a VPN.  I would like to have an appliance that I could drop in that would restrict access instead of setting up another computer in the store to serve as a proxy as we are already cramped in regards to space.  I have seen this feature in some of the higher end firewalls, but the only one that I found in a smaller appliance (Hotbrick) has been discontinued.

The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!
