    I don't think the PIX line has a GUI. I know the ASA line does, and they are replacing the PIX's, slowly.

    Actually they do, it's called PDM (PIX Device Manager). I believe it's a java applet that runs from a web browser. Not sure if it's any good or not though.

    there has always been a gui with the pix (PDM), it basically converts your GUI config into a the backend command line config. It relies on java, which is a bit ropey and if your medium to expert level pix user, then its easier to setup your pix command line.

    The GUI for version 7.0 is much better, the vpn wizard is really nice and they have a cool setup where it shows the direction of the access-list/nat applied.

    ....as for version 7.0 of the PIX in general, don't do anything fancy or cisco TAC will become your new best friends.

    The cisco forums are quite good.
