Hi cadet

it has the most the information

but the thing i couldnt understand is. how to go to the interfaces.

like we do in switch and router

#int fa 0/10

#ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0

#no shut

Likewise the same way in PIX515e how to configure ip for the inside or outside interface where the port can be used for telnetting.

thanks varun

i have assigned ip address to interface

but if i directly connect my pc to PIX , i couldnt even ping it. nor telnettting.

i may be troubling u a lot i know. god damn i need to use telnet to access my pix or WEB based mode atleast .

1. is that i can connect my pc directly to PIX to access switch by telnet or web based app.(as in starting guide it says to use switch or hub in between pc and pix).

thanks & regards

Hi Srikanth,

To ping the PIX you need to add this:

icmp permit any

For telnet you would need:

telnet 0 0

alongwith AAA commands:

aaa authetication telnet console LOCAL

There is a section in teh config guide that I sent for management access, that woudl help you.
