Ok, so how would I do this via command line then? &nbsp;Do you know, or are you simply voicing an opinion on the two types of management consoles?<br />

the Pix 501 supports PPTP, and i belive you can use the PDM to configure user accounts and the like. This would allow you to use the microsoft VPN client to connect to your PIX from home<br />
<br />
however, i don't use PDM either, instead prefering the command line, try googling for &quot;pix 501 pptp&quot; and see what you get!<br />

We are deploying a Cisco PIX 501 Firewall in our office and I would like to set up a tunnell from my remote home office to this corporate office. &nbsp;My home office consists of a Netgear FWG114P Prosafe Wireless Firewall. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
Is it possible for me to use the PIX PDM gui to set up a config where I can connect from home to the PIX in the office? &nbsp;If so, can anyone provide direction?<br />

Setting up VPN on Cisco PIX 501

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.

Networking

Hardware-based firewalls provide more sophisticated protection for inbound and outbound traffic than the simple Windows software firewall or the basic NAT firewalls found in routers. These devices implement techniques such as stateful packet inspection, deep packet inspection, and content filtering; and may include built-in antivirus and anti-malware protection.

Hardware Firewalls

Cisco PIX is a dedicated hardware firewall appliance; the Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) is a firewall and anti-malware security appliance that provides unified threat management and protection the PIX does not. Other Cisco devices and systems include routers, switches, storage networking, wireless and the software and hardware for PIX Firewall Manager (PFM), PIX Device Manager (PDM) and Adaptive Security Device Manager (ASDM).
