There are a number of tools that do this (both free and fee). If you check the archives, I know that this subject has come up more than once. BMC Software makes a PIX Firewall KM (PATROL for Cisco Secure PIX Firewall) that does PIX management[1]. I believe that NetIQ also makes something in their Webtrends product line that also does PIX management. Not sure if Pentasafe has anything... they might be IDS centric.
