topic Replacing flash in PIX 535 in Network Security https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/replacing-flash-in-pix-535/m-p/1143934#M503060 <P>Hi there,</P><P></P><P>I've been having a problem with one of my PIX 535's where writing the config takes 45+ seconds. I have other 535's where the write speed is normal. I want to replace the flash card on that box but I'm worried about what will happen when I replace it. Can anyone tell me what to expect when I replace that card? Any licensing issues or anything else to be aware of?</P><P></P><P>This is the primary PIX in a Failover pair. The failover partner is fine.</P><P></P><P>Thanks in advance,</P><P></P><P>--Brandon</P> Fri, 21 Feb 2020 11:23:19 GMT branfarm1 2020-02-21T11:23:19Z Replacing flash in PIX 535 https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/replacing-flash-in-pix-535/m-p/1143934#M503060 <P>Hi there,</P><P></P><P>I've been having a problem with one of my PIX 535's where writing the config takes 45+ seconds.
