In our colo room we use the Nokia IP330 appliance with CheckPoint Firewall
1.  Not a cheap machine but it does all what you asking for.  Don't go for
the Watchguard (soho), it can't handle the traffic.  Pay attention that VPN
in front of your servers will bring down the throughput.  If you have an
issue with throughput, then you can consider a SUN Netra with Checkpoint on
top of it, its even more performant then the Nokia and even cheaper!!!
Best regards,
Pedro, PreSales hosting :-)
