Downgrade for Version 7

[bugskumar]

This PIX of mine is not in production.

What's the process to downgrade from Cersion 7.04 to Version 6.14?

I tried to copy the flash image and reboot the firewall. But it still came back up in Version 7.

Thanks.

Hi,

Take a look at this page:

Downgrade to Previous Version
To downgrade to a previous version of the operating system software (software image), use the downgrade command in privileged EXEC mode.

For more information and a complete description of the command syntax, see the Cisco Security Appliance Command Reference.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Caution Do not load a previous version of software if your PIX security appliance is currently running PIX Version 7.0 or later. Loading a software image from monitor mode, on a PIX security appliance that has a PIX Version 7.0 file system, results in unpredictable behavior and is not supported. We strongly recommend that you use the downgrade command from a running PIX Version 7.0 image that facilitates the downgrade process.
