Can someone confirm if the PIX can be upgraded to verson 8 or is this only available on the ASA models? If the PIX can be upgraded, what are the memory requirements? Thanks.

So what's the latest/newest software for a PIX 501?

ct,

There was a beta version of 7.x for Pix 506E.

Yes, I did install it on my Pix506.

Latest "supported" software for Pix 501 is

6.3(5)

It is 6.3.5.

If you are already running 6.3.5,then you can try interim releases came after 6.3.5.

If not,then avoid running interims.

Do rate if helpful.
