I am working on my Security CCIE and I am looking to purchase a PIX for
my lab. Does the 501 have any DMZ capabilities? I know it has an
outside interface and an inside one, but can any of the 4 switch ports
be set as a DMZ port?
Thank you

No. You can not separate DMZ physically. But if you have release 6.3, you
can create VLANs on Inside interface and create a few interfaces. I don't
remember any limitations on this, but I know it was announced as a new
feature.

I have several in my enterprise and the answer is no, it does not have any
DMZ's. I would look at the Pix 506. I'm not sure if the 506 has DMZ's, but
the 501 sure doesn't.

There's no DMZ until the 515 and the additional interface is optional on
that.

I would suggest purchasing an old PIX 520. You should be able to pick up one
pretty cheap on eBay (I found 1 for $1000).

no, it wont support a DMZ. however, I really wouldnt worry about a DMZ if
you are studying for your Security CCIE. with the two interfaces, you
should be able to learn everything you'll need to learn on the pix 501 for
the Security CCIE. (IMHO) if you really want to play with a DMZ interface,
rent some rack time from a company that has pixes with more than 2
interfaces.
