Database firewall

Hi, Anyone knows any tool or software (compatible with Informix) to be used as database firewall? We want only certain machines to connect to a database server. The source machines may be of different operating systems (Windows, Linux, HPUX). The database server runs in a HP-UX 11i v3 box. HPUX IPfilter would be enough? Is there a better tool? I had heard of Guardium and Imperva, but I think they do not have the functionality to restrict by source IP addresses. Please provide any clues according your experience. Thanks Roger

Hi Roger, you can configure iptables on the server Informix.
