resetting a CIsco PIX 525

[mike160]

I've recently obtained a cisco pix 525 firewall, it powers up but stops booting whaen it states its the secondary firewall in a failover system. It won't let me boot past that point.


Is there a way to restore/reset the unit so that it can be configured as the primary firewall ??

thanks

note: I do NOT have a cisco license/contract, I just enjoy toying with diff types of hardware for fun

You need a different activation key which you would have to buy a license to obtain.
