PIX 515E with 1FE card hangs

[dkuan]

I have a PIX 515E that keeps hanging.

I found that 2 ethernet interfaces are having the same IRQ.

Will that cause the unit to hang?

Here's the output of show hardware:

Cisco PIX Firewall Version 6.1(3)

Cisco PIX Device Manager Version 1.1(2)

pix ethernet cards are polled, not interrupt driven, so this is not the problem. have you checked the field notices, there are a couple on 515 failures -

Thanks,

I've search through the pages and found no match for field replacement.

However, after I changed the FE card, the firewall runs fine.

I think it is a case of faulty card.
