Firewall Wizards: PIX 500 as ROUTER ONLY

[Dario Calia <dario_calia () yahoo com>]

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???
