Basically only one: The best way to deploy Exchange CAS with respect to a perimeter network is to put a reverse proxy you trust in the perimeter, configure the firewall between the perimeter and the intranet to be as restrictive as possible and to host the CAS server on the intranet. This will get traffic inspection and other reverse proxy security filtering in place in the perimeter.
Don't put CAS in the Perimeter network!

Our organization has standardized on Juniper and Firewall 1. We tried to use Juniper for secure publishing, but ended up with ISA Server 2006 in the DMZ. Here are the links we used:Publishing Exchange Server 2007 with ISA Server 2006

Note: Thomas Shinder is one of the great authorities on ISA. These article was written before the release of ISA 2006 SP1. ISA now supports SAN certificates. Shinder does obviously not like PowerShell.
