@make Well it all goes via a computer disposable facility - so in theory it's not just getting thrown in a landfill. However, the Cisco Pix 525 is rubbish. It's also been EOL since 200, and it was rubbish then. You could DOS it by scp'ing a file through it. Throughput would drop from 100Mb/s to something ridiculous low, even when it was configured to just allow packets through.
 The Juniper SRX240 are better firewalls, and may still be in support, so I might not bin them immediately

The Foundry chassis switch module is unused. An engineer left it behind after a repair 15 years ago.
