Pix To Asa 8.4 Migration ToolĨ.3 code for the ASA changes a lot of things that wont translate directly from the PIX.

Hope that helps! Its going to depend largely on your code base. Create a static route on the computer pointing to the address you want to test and give it a go. Just hook up the ASA outside interface to the switch and hook up a computer to the same switch. If you have an available switch (or even some empty ports you can assign to a temp vlan) you should be able to do a fairly realistic function test. Get as much of the PIX config loaded on the ASA as you can and spend some time testing it before you put it online. Id copy of the config off the PIX as step 1 and when you get the ASA in, spend some time doing the base config. If the code is pre 8.3, most of your config should be easily entered into the ASA. 8.3 code for the ASA changes a lot of things that wont translate directly from the PIX. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Its going to depend largely on your code base. I am trying to plan this out ahead so I have no downtime or very minimal amount of downtime when I take the pix offline. My question is when I convert all my pix (515E) firewall rules, etc to ASA will the certificates on the pix (if we use them) also be converted over too? Security requires us to have these services separate and on different devices). Hi all, So in a month or so we will be getting our second ASA 5510 for firewall purposes (the other one we use for VPN. This would save me a ton of time so I may end up writing a script myself to do this. Just ignore the hyperlink and view the string.Does anyone know of a tool that can convert a pre-8.3 ASA configuration (access-lists and NATs in particular) to a post-8.3 format? The ACLs in the newer code reference the private IPs. They're put there automatically and I can't see a way to disable them. Sorry for the hyperlinks in the above post.

Tftpd64 is a good, free TFTP server that I use and recommend. In order to restore to the ASA from a bare bones factory default, you'll need to first connect by the console cable and configure an IP address on an interface, on the same subnet as the TFTP server. If all is correct you'll see a bunch of !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, then your image file is on the TFTP server, where it can be copied back to the ASA using the reverse of the previous command, so copy t ftp:/ / 10.1.1.10 asa825-k8.bin. It will then prompt you for confirmation of the source filename, tftp server address, and destination filename. So let's say your asa image name is asa825-k8.bin and your tftp server is 10.1.1.10. Then at an elevated command prompt (#) you'll run the command copy (asa image name) t ftp:/ / (tftp server IP address). The ASA and the telnet server will both need to be in the same subnet. When copying them down, I would recommend being connected by SSH using a terminal emulator like Putty. Once you have your TFTP server up and running and confirm connectivity, you would simply copy off these files.

So for instance, if you're using ASA verison number 8.25, your asa file will be named something like asa825-k8.bin. bin extension and have asa and asdm in the name respectively along with the version numbers. The asa and asdm files will both end in the. 1) the asa image file, 2) the asdm file, and 3) the startup config file. You'll use TFTP to copy off three things. If you're not familiar with TFTP and how it works to move image and configuration files onto and off of a Cisco device, do a little googling to get familiar with that.

Not difficult at all if you have the right tools.

reload the existing configuration if the upgrade fails and the OS gets corrupted? I assume I'd have to connect through the console. I've never done an ASA upgrade before.How easy is to 'go back' i.e.
