There are only about 150 users so we are not talking about a lot of traffic.
I would guess less than 5MB.

I am looking at installing an IDS or IPS system for a small company (150

Cisco am looking at a Cisco ASA5510 IPS edition.   

What are your experiences with the 5510?  What are the real life good and

What other systems should I consider?  

My budget is $10.000.

Thanks for your help,
