520 or 515 open original image

Hello,



I'd like to practise with PIX firewalls. I thought I'd buy a 520 with 4 ports (EUR 250) but now a cisco dealer says these machines don't allow the latest versions. The dealer found a second hand



515 and with 6 ports it would cost around EUR 1250. I have the space for a large machine, that's not the issue.

What would you recommend, a 520 or more expensive 515? What PIX software versions do I need for passing PIX exams?



TIA, Bart


Hi Bart,

Recommend a Cisco Factory Refurbished PIX as they are Fully Licensed with current software, warranty same as new as well as SMARTnet Eligible.
