BRIEFS
MidCore Software, a developer of subscription-based Internet software, is introducing a new release of its MidPoint Internet gateway software at Comnet this week. MidPoint 5.0 includes improved firewall capabilities, and the ability to run with one or multiple types Internet access solutions, including DSL, analog, cable, T1, E1, and others.

The new software is being offered on a basic subscription service as well as optional advanced services targeted to small and medium business enterprises. The optional advanced services include Broadband Line Teaming, VPN and Distributed Web Hosting.   David Wilson, president of MidCore, said software licensing is moving away from traditional perpetual licensing and toward subscription and term licensing because it gives users greater flexibility and lowers their cost of licensing the software.
