i am trying to setup a new pix firwall (525). i named the inside and the outside interfaces and set the security level on them , but when i try to assign an ip address for the inside and the outside the command fails, has anyone experienced this issue. any ideas, thanks.

Hi,

we will need more info. What error do you get when you try to configure ip address?

the error i get is :

pixname(config)# ip address outside A.B.C.C 255.255.255.0

^

ERROR: % Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

the same error for inside or outside.

Also when i try to type ip address ? there is no outside or inside option from the ? mark.

hi,

what version of PIX os are you running? if you are running version 7.x or 8.x then you need to be in interface configuration i.e.

pixname(config-if)#
