PIX 515 failover to PIX 515E

[5c5administrator]

Hi,

can a PIX 515 with the same version and hardware with a failover license be used for a failover setup with a 515E that has an unrestricted licence?

Regards,

Darren.

Installing Failover

To install a failover connection, perform the following steps:

Step 1 Power off both the primary and secondary units.

Note Both PIX security appliances must have the same model number, have at least as much RAM, have the same Flash memory size, and be running the same software version. You can connect the PIX 515 to the PIX 515, but you cannot connect the PIX 515 to the PIX 515E or vice versa. Both units must be identical.
