Why not purchase a 16MB ISA flash card and build your own pix firewall? The pix flash (16MB) comes with un-restricted license (6 interface supported) and cost only $500.00. The whole thing will cost less than $600.00. $50.00 for a 350MHz CPU and motherboard, $30 for the chasis, $20 for 4 NICs and $25 for 256MB of PC-100 memory... and you have yourself a pix firewall. It will work; however, using it in a production environment is another matter since I am NOT a lawyer. "Mark W. Odette II" wrote:50 == 50, not 50 == 80...
150+ users can be behind a PIX 501 with a 50 user license enablement, but only a maximum of 50 concurrent higher-security zone ip hosts can conduct communications across the "internet"/least-secure interface of the PIX. AFAIK, all other PIX models only have the restricted/unrestricted specification for connection licensing... and don't quote me on this, but I believe the Restricted License covers 10,000 concurrent connections through the "internet"/least-secure interface. -Mark -----Original Message----- From: Juli Hato [mailto:julihato@;hotmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, October 22, 2002 9:25 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: PIX License Help!
