I might be totally off here, because I am NOT a PIX firewall expert (yet).

However, I would like to give it a try anyway.

1) Does your PIX firewall have a model number on the box - 5xx ?

2) Does a "show ver" show anything about what model it is ?

The thing is, once you know what model it is, you can look it up on the CCO,
and see exactly what memory expansion options you have.

Hth,

Ole

Subject: PIX - Flash Memory Upgrade [7:22209]


This question is for you PIX Firewall experts. 
I have a Cisco PIX Firewall (probably it's a PIX Classic, I'm not sure) and
I would like to upgrade its hardware. I have 8MB of RAM and 2MB of Flash
Memory. I think I won't have problems to upgrade the RAM memory, but in the
case of the Flash Memory I don't know if I can upgrade it because my 2MB of
Flash is composed by 4 chips (EPROMs) each one containing 512KB of Flash
memory, summarizing 2MB. I have no available sockets to insert more chips.
Is it possible to find EPROMS in the market containing at least 2MB for each
chip so that I can upgrade my Flash Memory to 8MB ? My new hardware
configuration will provide me the possibility of upgrading my software from
4.1(5) to new software version 6.0 ?


Thanks in advance,

Joco Paulo
