Does the Tipping Point appliance allow you to create custom rules now? The
last time I tried the appliance (which was over a year ago) that 'feature'
was not yet available.

Dear Experts,

Our company plan to install IDS to protect our resources, I'm already
read about snort as NIDS, but, that's software based. I'm interesting
with hardware based that will work transparently with our Cisco PIX, no
need to make changes in our firewall. What's your suggestion.

I can highly recommend Tippingpoint. It's a close to a set and forget IPS
as I've seen, and it's capable of handling large bandwidth requirements
without bogging down (assuming you've bought the right appliance for your
bandwidth requirements.)
