- You can save the configuration of PIX to TFTP server using following command:

--> write net [[server_ip]:[filename]]

- We cannot copy the PIX image to flash. If you need to save the current OS image for backup, you can download it from cisco.com.

- To upgrade the firewall, following command is used:

--> copy tftp flash
