Iggsterman,

It is ambiguous to me. Is cisco saying I can go to 7.22 from 6.3? Their example uses 7.0.

Thank you for your response.

Yes, they use 7.0(1) as the example. Upgrade your PIX to 6.3(5) first. Then correct path should be 6.3(5) - 7.0(1) - 7.1(2) - 7.2(3). Make sure you read the Requirements section carefully.

Thank you, Igg. While I have your attention could you help me out with a CLI string for a PIX to allow a computer to ping thru a vpn thru a pix and the machines inside?

Thanks/Quaz

Igg,

One more thing. How high does PIX software go?

PIX can go to up to 8.0(4)32. PDM goes to 6.1 (not sure the build number).
As for pinging though the VPN you should be able to, as long as the tunnel is configured and you are routing properly between the machines.
