Easy to use in a "Microsoft" kind of way. Last I heard, it does nice things for you like always allow DNS traffic through, even if you have no port 53 rule and a deny all policy. How helpful!
You can override the hidden rules, but it takes some real digging. Not
something the average admin can grasp. At least you can teach the
average admin how to be somewhat usefull on the FW-1. Teaching
someone the PIX is a PITA and the non-obvousness is rampant.
I prefer iptables on Linux, but do not even try to explain to anyone
else how it works.
