Correct. but the discussion we were having was regarding particular firewalls over another specifically for the purpose of studying for the CCIE Security test. Therefore nothing like "real life". :)
For a real network, you are absolutely 100% correct!

Having multiport firewalls allows for segregation of all networks behind those interfaces while still allowing internet connectivity to all. Who wants to connect to a vpn just to browse to a web server that could be in the dmz? -Patrick >>> "Scott Morris" 02/27/02 09:58AM >>> Personally? I have two 520's that I got a sweet deal on (EBay). But other than that, what is the functional difference between having two 501's and two of something higher? By that, I mean what is the difference between setting up VPN's to the outside interfaces versus a DMZ? What is the big deal? There's nothing that you can't test yourself on with a pair of 501's that will be that dramatically different with 506's, 515's or whatever.... The difference would be in the permissions or translations, but as long as you understand that difference, I don't see what the big deal is. Other than playing around for emulating a customers network, I've really never used my DMZ interfaces for lab testing. So if I didn't have them, it wouldn't affect me one way or the other. -----Original Message----- From: Wes Stevens [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, February 27, 2002 8:56 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: How to get the activation key for my clone Pix? In my own lab a I have a 506. I would like to have another pix with a dmz interface. I am sure pretty sure they will cover pix to pix and dmz in the ccie security. But even on ebay to buy a 520 with three interfaces usually runs over $2k. I have a full lab at home - atm, token ring, isdn, frame - ten routers and three switches. Another $2k to $3k for a pix with three interfaces is beyond my reach. So how do you practice pix to pix and dmz? >From: "Scott Morris" >Reply-To: >To: "'Wes Stevens'" >Subject: RE: How to get the activation key for my clone Pix? >Date: Wed, 27 Feb 2002 08:32:24 -0500 > >Somebody's already been selling 'em on EBay. > >And I never said legal action should be brought against anyway...
