Hi,

You can use SSH to connect to the outside interface of your PIX, you'll need to generate RSA key,

Do (in config mode),

> ca generate rsa key

{I prefer to use 2048 for the module size as this will provide the stongest key but you can use 512,1024,2048}

Now you'll need to save using: ca save all

You'll need to configure ssh excess on the PIX, so do the following:

> ssh 255.255.255.255 outside

OR

> ssh 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 outside - With this you can connect from any public address.

You can view you generated public key on the PIX by issuing: sho ca mypubkey rsa

You'll need a ssh client, such as Putty.exe to connect to your PIX {do a search for putty.exe on google.com}

When you connect to the outside interface of the PIX via ssh client the password is always 'pix' and then you can issue the configured PIX password and enable password for config mode.

Hope this helps.

Jay.

Thanks Jay !
