I received my PIX 501 this afternoon! Hoowever I can not access it via PDM. I got the 56bit DES key from Cisco, but I can't figure out how to activate the thing. The documentation just goes through upgrading the FW IOS and at the end it will prompt you for the key. I don't want to upgrade the IOS, just install the key. Any ideas? Please note my versions (no command activate-key). Thanks
