Folks--

    It will not wipe your current config.


   While the upgrade will not wipe out the configuration,
it is quite possible that the confiugration will not work. It all
depends on the upgrade path. If you make too big of a jump, your
configuration might still be there, but be unavailable. 


But you really should back it up; I've lost crypto configs when doing PIX
upgrades. Also copy down your activation key somewhere, because if you
lose that, you can't use the PIX.

   Agreed. At least make a text copy so it is easy to reapply if
everything goes south.
