[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [FW-1] Using Cisco IOS firewall feature set
Title: Message I am looking at
complimenting our FW-1's with switches installed with the Cisco
IOS firewall feature set.
I would like to
implement this on 6500 switches also using layer 3 switching so inspection
can be done on switches and not on fw nic.
We primarily would
like to reduce unessesary internal to internal traffic.
We will use the
Cisco Policy Manager version 3 which appears to be similar to the FW-1 GUI and
not commandline.
There doesn't appear
to be many people using the IOS firewall feature set and it appears quite apt
and manageable.
I am aware of the
TCP\UDP only inspection limitation of CBAC.
Does anyone used the IOS firewall in production and can
give advice?
Are there any peformance
comparisons?
Regards
Eric
