6.x gives you much more flexibility to add remarks in many places throughout the config using the PDM GUI<br />

Hi,<br />
<br />
Am working with a 525 Pix. Is there any way to add remarks to the config file (besides the ACL's) and it will show up doing a show run command ? Would like to add remarks to some of the nat lines.<br />
<br />
Thank you

Software firewalls, also known as host-based firewalls, provide a layer of software on one host that controls network traffic in and out of that single machine. Most operating systems now include firewall software, but many available software firewalls include central distribution, antivirus systems and disaster recovery.
