Cyrus,
What type of org, how many ports, do you additional
modules for the chassis.
The FWSM can run more than $50,000 - so can a pair of
PIX 525's or their ASA counterparts.
Nearly every option for the 6500 can be had for a much
cheaper alternative in the Cisco line of products.
Do you need extreme bw or is there just a perception?
What do you have now?
What problem is it going to solve?
