Spotlight Story

This is Network World's Cisco Subnet news alert in which we focus on the top items from Cisco Subnet, your daily source for Cisco news, blogs, discussion items, security alerts, giveaways and more.

Cisco introduces IPS card for the ASA 5505
"Ever wondered what that blank slot in your ASA5505 is for? Well now you know, it's for a modular IPS card," says Cisco Security Expert Jamey Heary. "The AIP SSC-5 provides up to 75Mbps of IPS or IDS throughput and supports both IPv4 and IPv6 networks. The 75Mbps performance with 4000 maximum connections per second should be able to accommodate just about any SOHO or branch office configuration, the sweet spot for the ASA5505."
