I read somewhere that you could by only plugging in the failover cable but I
have never tried. Anyone?

Hi

I ran into the same problem just last week. No, you cant (according to
Cisco) run a PIX using only a failover licence. I managed to upgrade my
licence to restricted software licence, and now everything is working fine.
This drove me nuts for a few weeks, until I got it sorted. My vendor
shipped me the wrong licence, soI was in limbo for a while.

Anyway, again, to answer your question, (and to repeat what a local Cisco
engineer told me), you can't use the failoer licence on it's own

Cheers

Kevin

hi, group

   May I use a pix with FO license as a single firewall
not for the failover constrction.
Could it do all the basic functions as a normal firewall?

thanks
