I don't have any experience with the 5GTs, but the ASA is basically a modernized version of the PIX, so I would consider it to be stable. I have a handful deployed at work and at client sites and haven't had any major problems with them. I think it really boils down to 1. which one you're more confortable with, which sounds like it would be the Netscreen box, and/or 2. cost. jms _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
