In Version 6.2 the PIX allows you to use object grouping.
Earlier versions do not have any similar feature.

Subject: [fw-wiz] PIX Firewall IP Addresses


We are using a CISCO PIX firewall version 5.2(5), with both 
NAT and PAT 
enabled.  My task is to clean-up/reduce the number of conduit 
rules.  I am 
new at this. 

While reviewing the rules in place, I noticed many cases 
where individual 
rules are written for consecutive IP addresses.  My question 
is whether 
the syntax allows for a "range" of addresses to be used in 
one rule.  For 
example,

Rules written to allow access from source addresses - 172.165.50.200, 
172.165.50.201, 172.165.50.202

Can a source address on one rule replace the 3 rules above, such as 
172.165.50.200-202

Thank you for any assistance.

Regards,

Mark McCreary
