The PIX security appliance must have a minimum of 32 MB of RAM memory.
You must obtain a new activation key if you will be using 3DES.
The PIX security appliance should not be downgraded to a software revision lower than 5.0(3) after
the new software from the 16 MB circuit board is installed.
If you downgrade from software Version 5.3 to 5.2 or lower, you will lose private data (keys,
certifications, and CRLs) that are stored in Flash memory. You need to use the clear flashfs
command, downgrade 5.0 | 5.1 | 5.2 options if your PIX security appliance has 16 MB Flash
memory, private data stored in the Flash memory, and you used the ca save all command to save
these items in Flash memory.
