Thanks Brian, Do you know/can you tell when PIX 7.0/FWSM 3.0 are expected to come out? It was posted on this list that the code trains will be merged at that point.

FWSM was based on PIX OS v6.0 and details like these may have diverged between the FWSM and the PIX appliance OS versions.

Hi all, The manual for Cisco's new FWSM says "State information for multimedia sessions that require inspection are not passed over the state link for stateful failover. For fragmented IP packets, only the first fragment is inspected. For segmented TCP packets, if messages are divided between segments, the FWSM cannot inspect the packets." Does anyone knows if this is true also of Cisco PIX? As FWSM is based on PIX it seems likely, but i can't find documentation for this.
