Hola Fernando I poked around a bit and shook some trees. It seems as of PIX OS 7.0 as well as the ASA 7.0, Cisco allows the URG bit to be controlled so it is not cleared - of course as you point out the default is to clear it. So perhaps consigning to the dust bin completely may not be as urgent to do yet. ;-) wfms
