Pix 501 recommendations

[patrickhenderson]

Hi,

I have seen pix 520 in the past but interested to know how the 501 is as a small office FW.

Any others of recommendation. I know this is Cisco but does anyone sell other typoe as good.

cheers

Specs of the PIX 501 could be found on:

As per other Firewall on the market, I'll leave it to the others to comment.

Your going to want to look at the Netscreen 5XP. It is statefull and has an asic designed just for the Firewall and VPN processing. Really easy to configure too.
