Cisco Pixes are the only firewalls Cisco delivers, in my opinion. A normal
router is only a packetfilter at the most, unless you would be running a
Firewall feature set on your router.....
And yes, this is a firewall list but on the other hand, to connect to the
internet you need some kind of router, so it is natural that router
questions are being asked too. Especially because also routers have
vulnerabilities, including Cisco routers.....
