Ok guys, I got the message...
Thanks anyway

wintermute000, sorry, I just saw your reply, thanks for getting back to me.
Does it mean that SRX doesn't need CLI configured, how will different ports be allowed for communication?

deanwebb,
Yes, English is not my native language (well, obviously), however, what I meant was that Network is certainly "language" I don't understand...
And that is why is probably difficult to explain what I need, not that much because of my (bad) English, but more likely because of my poor understanding of what I want/need to do....
I will try to get a "better" story, and will get back to you.
Thank you so far for your time.

I would appreciate if I could get more help on this! Thanks in advance

So, you are saying (translated in my own language) that in general configuring Cisco router especially ACLs is quiet complicated, therefore I should avoid it (with which I agree)?

You are saying "if ACLs are one of your requirements, I would definitely choose a proper firewall over a standard router as they are built specifically for that purpose." - does it mean that SRX is a firewall not a router?

Thanks for help

SimonV, thanks for reply.

this particular router would be used for the testing where 3 servers from different networks (in the same physical location) would need to communicate/connect to each other.
As for the ACL list, as each Server/Interface uses different ports to connect, they would need to be specified in the ACL list.
Are you saying that Juniper SRX300 would be suitable for this?
Thanks again

I think that second-hand is not really preferred solution.

Also, how easy/difficult is to set up Cisco router?

I haven't contacted Cisco re-seller yet...
How about competitors such as Juniper, HP and IBM, would they have anything similar on their market?
Thanks

Yes, this router would be for testing before putting it in production and in production, Cisco ISR4321 is used (however, probably in production, it is used for wider/further networking of other networks).
Thanks

DeanWebb, thanks for your reply! I wish I had a Newton's capacity in the networking world :)

So, this particular router would be used just for the testing (networks in the same physical location, and should be acting as a firewall as well), therefore I presume that "small business-class router would be more likely to offer a web page with step-by-step wizards or input screens to assist in setting them up correctly" as you have stated below would be good choice, am I correct?
Could you recommend any of those routers?
Thanks

Routing and Switching / Cisco ISR edition (4321)
May 21, 2017, 10:45:25 AM
Hi,
As my user name says, I am new to the networking and I am looking for advise - is there any router that would be similar to the Cisco ISR4321 - at the moment, we are looking for something that can connect 3 different networks, has ACL list configured, so those specifications.
Although Cisco ISR4321 is not one of the more expensive ones, I am still not sure if additional things (such as licence etc) needs to be purchased, so I am wondering if there might be something cheaper (or easier to configure, as apparently I have read that Cisco routers are not one of the easiest ones to set up, is that true?)
Any response would be much appreciated
Thanks in advance
