Other Need some recommendations - Firewall that meets PCI

[dpalme]

It appears that since we are going to move our ecommerce package off of a hosted plan to our own server, we need to add a firewall in order to meet PCI compliance.

Any and all suggestions are appreciated.

By PCI compliance you mean "The Payment Card Industry"? If yes, I highly doubt there are special firewalls for this type of services. However, the firewall you chose MUST be configured properly for this type of transactions.
CISCO will have something for your situation and this article or this publication might help as well.

Have a look at the PFsense forums, they have some pointers.

PCI compliance does not dictate any special type of firewall. AFAIK if you are only dealing with one server, you could use a host based firewall with PF.

FYI PCI compliance extends beyond layer3.

I should have been a little more clear, when I said off of a hosted plan and onto our own server, it is moving it from an outside service like Volusion to a co-located box.
