Problems with new PIX version

[Margaret Peloquin <peloquin at austincc dot edu>]

Have any of you had problems after upgrading to the new PIX code.  We 
have had some problems.  See information from out IT department below:

"We recently upgraded the Pix code to the new 7.0 release. This version 
better enforces standard protocol security. So far the only issues we 
have had were ... and the III box. [III uses] ... TCP port 2000 for 
their Millennium GUI. This port is an IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers 
Authority) {http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers} port assigned 
to Cisco Systems for their SCCP protocol. Obviously when a Cisco device 
such as the Pix sees traffic on this port which is not SCCP, it is going 
to drop it."

While I find that our IT guys are usually on the ball and certainly try 
to help us keep things up and running very consistently, I haven't seen 
any traffic about this on the IUG list.  Are we the only ones who have 
upgraded to this PIX version?
