We have purchased a Cisco PIX 525 firewall. I have worked with
Checkpoint in the past (1997-8) but never with Cisco firewall.

I would appreciate it if someone provide me with the basic rules i
should have a on the PIX 525

There are a lot of examples on cisco.com .

The PIX is fairly flexible, so it would not be productive for us to
outline all the possible rules you -might- need.

The rule type you will need over and over again is the access-list .
If you plan to configure your 525 though the CLI, you should
become quite familiar with access-lists:

If your access-controls are going to be non-trivial, then I also
recommend that you use object groups and the 'name' command
in order to organize the access elements and make them more legible:
