You need to purchase an additional NIC to have a DMZ. It comes standard with two interfaces, as you stated. ccie1ab

The data sheet says : Quote Interfaces Console Port: RS-232 (RJ-45) 9600 baud Outside: Integrated 10BaseT port, half-duplex, RJ45 Inside: Integrated auto-sensing, auto-MDIX 4-port 10/100 switch, RJ45 Unquote The way I interpret this is that this PIX basically has two interfaces :- one outside (10BaseT port) and one inside but implemented as 4-port switch, which means you can only have two segments and no DMZ. Please correct me if I am wrong.
