No, that cannot be done. PIX 6 does not have a way to copy directly to
the startup configuration. All of the ways to load configurations in
PIX 6 involve merging the new configuration with the existing state of
the PIX.
You have two basic ways to proceed:
A) clear the configuration, config an IP address for your inside interface,
config in the tftp-server command, and "config net" to bring in the new
configuration; or
B) create a temporary configuration file which goes through all of the
items that need to be adjusted, 'no's or 'clear's the old value, and
puts in the new value. When the time comes, "config net" to activate
the configuration changes.
This temporary configuration file does not need to be a complete configuration:
because whatever is in it will be merged with the existing configuration,
it only needs to have the commands that you would have typed in manually
to the CLI in order to make the changes you want.
