    Hello Michael,

    Which PIX model do you have? The PIX supports static
    routing, Passive
    RIP and a very complete implementation of OSPF. What
    you describe is
    quite easy to deploy. Here are some pointers directly
    from the Cisco
    web site:

    Pointer to section of the Configuration Guide on
    Routing:
     
    http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/iaabu/pix/pix_sw/v_63/config/bafwcfg.htm#1129432

    Pointer to some specific routing commands in the
    command reference:
     
    http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/iaabu/pix/pix_sw/v_63/cmdref/mr.htm#1027614
     
    http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/iaabu/pix/pix_sw/v_63/cmdref/mr.htm#1097803
     
    http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/iaabu/pix/pix_sw/v_63/cmdref/mr.htm#1097926

    In the end, there are two schools of thought on
    routing and firewalls and the PIX caters to
    both.

    Cheers, Dario

    | I have a PIX 500 that I want to use to connect two
    public IP networks.
    | I don't need to provide much security support,
    simply use it as a simple
    | router between subnets. Any ideas???
