[c-nsp] Sizing up a Cisco PIX

[Jim McBurnett]

The 506e running 6.3(4) can do 1 VLAN.
This feature was released quietly. My local Cisco SE did not even know
it was coming out..
It was released in Sept. I have tested it and it does work. BUT remember
the 506 has a 10MB interface and not a 100MB..

	IF you may need to do a DMZ and have more hosts, look at the
506(dot1q
	vlan DMZ) or 515(dot1q vlan DMZ and physical port DMZ)


Didn't think the 506 could do vlan? Only the 515-R, but I could be
wrong...
