Re: pix vs. ios firewall feature set

[Brian Ford <brford () cisco com>]

AMS,

I'm a bit confused.

You would like to hear the comments of some number of total, anonymous 
strangers who happen to subscribe to this list rather than listen to "a 
cisco engineer"?  Wouldn't it make more sense to try and confirm 
information like this through your normal Cisco sales and support channels?

My only comments are that your note seems like flame bait and I question 
the logic of trying to determine vendor strategy from messages on an open, 
anonymous mail list.

Liberty for All,

Brian
