Issues with Cisco PIX 515e

[Kyle McIntosh]

So, i am trying just to do the initial setup of a Cisco PIX515e 6.3, and I am hitting a brick wall.

I got the console up, thought that I had everything configured correctly  (Like internal IP and such), but I can't ping to or from, with a  crossover cable from inside/ethernet0 to a PC.

Need some help/advise.

I would also like to get it set up for management via ASDM.

It is a base config, nothing else.

Thanks

Typically Inside is Ethernet1 but anyway - I think you need straight cable from inside to PC not xover and then obviously the 6 commands

Nameif

Interface

IP Address

Nat

Global

Route

sh xlate will indicate whether or not your translation is working Nat/Global

sh int will let you know whether your Interfaces are configured correctly

Need to be sure you have different network on each side (inside. outside)

Inside Security = 100

Outside Security = 0

You wont be able to ping to the pix but you should be able to ping from the pix (next hop router, pc, etc)
