Hello

I know this is off topic so I would not be upset if no one can help. I have 
asked the following question to Cisco PDI and the response was rather "grey":

I have a potential customer who has two sites. At each site they currently have 
a Cisco PIX firewall that provides firewall services with NAT, remote access 
VPN to one site and a L2L VPN between the sites. Also, they have a Cisco 1700 
router at each site that handles routing between the two sites over a E1 serial 
link and routing towards the PIX firewalls. They only have one subnet at each 
site. They want to move all the services running on the PIX and 1700s at each 
site to Cisco 891 ISRs which they own already. The link between the sites will 
become a 10MB leased line. I am concerned as to whether this 891 ISR's is 
powerful enough for the features required. Also I would propose to use Zone 
Based Firewalls on the ISRs and if this is the case am I right that as the ISR 
is essentially a firewall I would have to create zones for the uplink 
interfaces and apply policies.

I wander whether an ASA at each site would be a more suitable solution.

Paul
