Re: PIX IOS stable version

I am upgrading a 525pair, from 5.2.3. Can anyone vouch for the stability of 6.1.2? I have tried 5.3.2 and had problems with some users getting through to sites blocked by my URL filtering box(Websense). I also tried 5.2.6, and experienced dreadful slowness from inside->DMZ. That cleared up when I dropped back down to 5.2.3.

I would like to go to 6.x, but what is stable? 6.02, 6.1.2? 6.1.3?

Thanks

We also had issue's using 5.2.3 with some slow down between our DMZ and inside interface. We tried 6.02, but that did not seem to correct the problem. We recently went to 6.1.2, and have been using it without the slowdowns. So far it has been real stable for us.

Thanks!

I am going to schedule an upgrade to 6.1.2 in about 2 weeks.

We've been using 6.1(2) for over two month now. It's stable.

Anyone have thoughts on 6.1(3)? According to release notes, not alot of fixes, especially if you don't care about the SNMP thing from a few weeks back. Looks like all it does is solve that set of issues.
