I copied all my firewall configurations to a tftp server. Now I was thinking that it would be a good idea to copy
the PIX image but I cannot seem to get it to work. I was able to copy
the IOS for my routers without a problem. I found a Cisco article at
the following link that explains how to copy the PIX image to a TFTP
server but it is not working for me:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/vpndevc/ps2030/products_tech_note09186a008072142a.shtml#write
In the article it states:
Issue the copy flash tftp command in order to copy the PIX image from
Flash to the TFTP server:
pix#copy flash tftp
Address or name of remote host []? 10.0.0.1
Source filename []? pix512.bin
Destination filename [pix512.bin]?
Accessing tftp://10.66.64.10/backup_cfg_for_pix...
!!!!
1030 bytes copied in 9.612 secs (107 bytes/sec)
pix#
When I do copy flash tftp all I get is this:
pix# copy flash tftp
Usage: copy capture:<capture-name> tftp://<location>/<pathname>
[pcap]
copy http[s]://[<user>:<password>@]<location>[:<port>]/
<pathname>
flash[:[image | pdm]]
copy tftp[:[[//location][/pathname]]] flash[:[image | pdm]]
None of these commands are what I want (I think).
I am on PIX 515 6.3.3
The TFTP-Server line is entered and it works for copying PIX configs.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

That's right you cannot copy the PIXOS image on the TFTP Server, but you can download it from Cisco.

Never mind. I guess it can't be done. I found this:

You cant take backup of the image. However, if you need image, TAC can help you get it given that you have a valid contract for your PIX.
