>     The PIX "box" provides NAT so you will need your ISP to supply a pool 
>     of "real" IP addresses. These get mapped to your internal network as 
>     needed. We went with the PIX 32 as we do not forsee a need for more 
>     than 32 external connections through our firewall. The command syntax 
>     is similar to the Cisco IOS (command line) structure, but different 
>     enough to cause confusion if you know IOS. No GUI interface and no 
>     DHCP support if you are using NT.
