I'm in the process of upgrading our PIX 515(R) to a 515E(R) In the process of upgrading the PIX I would also like to upgrade the OS from

6.3(1) to 7.0(4)

While I get the Kinks worked out I would like to have both units up and running, then once I'm sure we have it all Dialed it, swap the IP addresses...

Any Tips to get me Started?

Thanks, Scott

It wants to boot into monitor mode, Set the IP of the Inside interface to something local to the TFTP, then copy the image, then you get the normal Command prompt then set the IP of the Outside interface then copy the image again to the Flash?

I can kind of understand the 2 copies, but one on each interface? did they mean to use interface ethernet 1 and interface ethernet 0.

Thanks! Scott start with reading
