If you are already putting in a Cisco then you could certainly consider the 'Firewall Feature Set' on the 1600. This would save you having to buy an extra box. I haven't used the FFS, but I'm sure that there are people out here who can give advice... -Steve >>> Steve Linford <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 10/18/99 12:21 >>> I need some advice on what options there are to provide a small network of Macs with a low cost firewall; I have a client with a LAN of 30 Macs who wants a leased line and a mail server installed on his LAN, and wants the machines on his LAN to be able to reach the net. The general advice I'm getting is that Macs are difficult to hack into, so just plug his Cisco 1600 straight into his ethernet hub ... but I don't think I'd sleep too well without some sort of firewall so I'd be very grateful if someone can tell me what my options are (the solution needs to be low cost).
