If you had a customer with their mind set on replacing their limited
PIX 505 with another Cisco device, for good or evil, which would you
go with? I'm not all that well versed with the ASA devices and the
software restrictions that come with them. In short, unless the price
difference is huge - and that doesn't appear to be the case - then I
see no benefit of any ASA over the various 500 series PIXen and an
unrestricted license (not to include some of the addons that appear to
be available with the ASAs like AV and IPS). Anyone here have an
opinion?
The customer is a small office: 50 desktops, 15-20 servers, will be
using SIP, many peer-to-peer VPNs with customers, uses their PIX for
remote access for employees.
