    I've chosen to deploy a PIX 501 on the front end of our new WAN.
    The additional 10/100 ports that it has will be for the web server
    in a DMZ. We will be using a linux based firewall as the second
    firewall, protecting a predominately Win2k3 based LAN.

    Would appreciate recommendations for a good book for PIX. I have
    hired a CCNP to deploy it and the linux box, but I need to learn
    this so that I know what's going on.

    I have worked with several flavors of Raptor and SEF. A great
    product, but I didn't want the "shields" to have the same vulns
    as what I was protecting.

    Recommedations?

    Jeff
