topic PIX 506E configuration/setup? in Network Security https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/pix-506e-configuration-setup/m-p/1002896#M918032 <P>Hello everyone---</P><P></P><P>I am just starting at a company that has a PIX 506E box. I have never used a Cisco PIX box before. I am trying to connect to it to see what the configuration is. However, the instructions say to go to <A class="jive-link-custom" href="https://192.168.1.1/startup.html" target="_blank">https://192.168.1.1/startup.html</A> but our subnet is 192.168.168.xxx. I have connected a laptop directly to the "console" port on the PIX, but no luck.</P><P></P><P>Apologies in advance, for my lack of understanding in using the PIX. My prior experience with VPN is with Windows Server and with firewalls is with OpenBSD boxes.</P><P></P><P>Thanks for all your help!</P> Mon, 11 Mar 2019 13:02:07 GMT wgchang 2019-03-11T13:02:07Z PIX 506E configuration/setup? https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/pix-506e-configuration-setup/m-p/1002896#M918032 <P>Hello everyone---</P><P></P><P>I am just starting at a company that has a PIX 506E box.

You might also need to "crack" the passwords if you don't know it ..please check the below links </P><P></P><P><A class="jive-link-custom" href="http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/vpndevc/ps2030/products_password_recovery09186a008009478b.shtml#pix_without" target="_blank">http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/vpndevc/ps2030/products_password_recovery09186a008009478b.shtml#pix_without</A></P><P></P><P></P><P>I hope it helps .. please rate helpful posts</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 19 Jun 2008 23:06:21 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/pix-506e-configuration-setup/m-p/1002897#M918033 Fernando_Meza 2008-06-19T23:06:21Z
