Question: Considering the changes to how networks will be designed and built, it is noted that Windows 2012 no
longer has the Forefront product line to protect its infrastructure. Having spent many years learning and working with

services or do you recommend the use of third party products (appliances) to take the helm on securing a private
cloud, from the perspective of a LAN, DMZ, and Internet model?
Answer: We see value in combining both technologies - Hyper-V Network Virtualization to provide network layer
isolation and 3rd party stateful inspection firewalls for hostile network security zones such as external and DMZ
network segments that may require limited connectivity to internal networks.

Question: 4 licenses: datacenter, standard, essentials and foundation plus "Hyper-V server"
