we're not using frag guard but upgrading sftware is a snap... with failover config it is a couple'a more steps but with a single firewall, ther's nothing to it!
The registration for des and 3des is tied to the serial number so a software upgrade should use the same key. watch wrap! http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/iaabu/pix/pix_61/config/upgrade.htm and if you are runnign 5.3, acl's are already used... (I think even 6.x still supports conduits......either way, you could use acl's on yoru current software. -Patrick >>> 04/10/02 02:44PM >>> I have some questions a few questions about upgrading my PIX. 1.) My boss did some research on IDS systems and got very interested in fragmented packet protection. I was looking at our PIX and found the command... sysopt security fragguard Has anyone used this? Are there any pitfalls like using the fixup commands? What version does this come in? 2.) I am running version 5.3(1). I know I should upgrade to 6.1. I have a PIX 520 with 128 MB RAM and 16 MB Flash. What are the selling points I can tell management? 3.) How smooth would it be to upgrade from 5.3 to 6.1? 4.) I have a vpn connection between our New York and London offices in a PIX to PIX vpn setup. If I upgrade one PIX will I lose the vpn? 5.) What version of the PIX switches to access-lists? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
