Re: Pix 501, ASA 5505, or something else? Yeah, that's a good idea. And a laptop has a built in battery backup so that's even better. If I could get my dad's old laptop to turn on again I'd use that actually but alas it won't and I don't have any other laptops to use. Too bad too, because I've actually wanted to play with something like that. I've even thought it using of my my existing machines at the house that has Server 2003 on it as the router/firewall. I know it can do IPSec but I've never had much luck getting it to work right. Nothing like using existing hardware for another purpose (essentially free). |
