Hi,

What u exatly want to do as in cloning?

U could either use the outside interface as dhcp client to pull ip address from iSp,or a pppoe client or assign an ip address to the outside interface of the pix

i want to use the outside int as a dhcp client. the problem is that the isp registers its users by mac address, and not this pix was connected to the modem by this time.

HI,

HI,

Have u added this line :

ip address dhcp setroute on the pix .

What entries u see on the arp table ?

The pix will proxy arp so it should pick an ip address and route from the dhcp server ?

U could turn that off with sysopt noproxyarp if_name .

But since this is 501 we cannot use this command to set the mac address of the interface :

mac-address mac_address [standby mac_address]
