Cisco Firewall :: ASA 5540 - Firmware Upgrade Requirement?
Apr 8, 2013
We have a old Cisco ASA5540 firewall running on firmware version 7.0 and also a Firewall Service Module (FSWM) running on firmware version 2.3.
My question is if I would like to upgrade the Cisco ASA5540 firmware version to 7.1 above and the FWSM firewall version to 3.1 above, any requirement on the memory size or hardware to perform the firmware upgrade activity, do I require to do some memory or hardware module upgrade activty first before the firmware upgrade ?
Any restriction, shortcoming and pre-requites to do before the firmware upgrade activity ?

Currently my ASA5510 has a 64MB internal flash. Does the ASA require a higher capacity flash for an IOS upgrade from 7.2(x) to 8.2(x)? The Cisco Release Notes does not state any internal flash requirement, but just wanted to double check.

I need to use this feature for only three or maximum four users in company then would i really need to do memory upgrade? or can i go with 1GB memory?also how i can get the prices of part number "ASA5540-MEM-2GB=" at cisco.com?

Just upped our external ASA-5540 pair to 8.4(1), and now one of our nat's is busted.
Here's the lowdown:
Our public IP for our IronPorts ends in .167. That IP is natted to a VIP on our ACE, which load balances to the IronPorts.
The outside interface of the ASA uses .162, which has been the pat for all outbound traffic for a few years... except for the subnet that houses the IronPorts. Due to reverse lookup, that subnet uses the .167 IP address for all outbound traffic.
After the code upgrade, the nat won't work. No email sent or received. Nothing but Deny's on the ASA with flags reading either "SYN" or "RST". IE: Apr 27 12:56:11 10.22.151.41 local5.crit %ASA-2-106001: Inbound TCP connection denied from 69.25.174.17/36917 to 207.236.211.167/25 flags SYN on interface outside
If I return the subnet pat back to the outside interface, then inbound traffic works fine, though reverse lookup fails and anyone running a reasonable spam filter won't send to us.

I have two Cisco ASA 5540, these ASA running ver 7.2. and used mainly as VPN gateways.My question is simple, Apart from the extra AnyConnect client functionality and the higher encryption, is there any specific security benefits (related to the VPN use) for upgrading to ver. 8.x ?

We want to run ASA 8.4.x on an old ASA5540. We need to upgrade its memory to 2 GB with the following memory upgrade: ASA5540-MEM-2GB=
I suspect that we will completely remove the existing 1 GB of memory and replace it with 2 GB. If this is the case, can I use this 1 GB of memory removed from the ASA5540 and put it in a ASA5510 instead of buying a ASA5510-MEM-1GB= for the ASA5510?

We have 2 ASA 5520s in active/standy. We run IOS 8.2(5)24 and I wondered if I need to upgrade as I see the versions have gone to 8.4 and beyond! We are not getting any issues and I'm aware of the difficult migration from 8.2 to 8.4 etc due to the NAT change.

I´ve a problem with my "old" PIX515e device. I wanted to flash this device to a new firmware level but forgot to disable the "lost enable" password before. So I started to make the firmware upgrade on my device, ended up with "flashfs" is busy and I should start the enabled modus and "copy flash tftp" to activate the new flash version. Unfortunalty I cannot do this because I´ve lost my password. When I´m trying to boot this device up now, it will end with a error message...
Unable to locate boot image configuration
Booting first image in flash
No bootable image in flash. Please download an image from a network server in the monitor mode
Failed to find an image to boot
As mentioned, when I will load a new flash image over monitor mode, i cannot activate that image because of flashfs is busy.The password reset bin files will not work too. I tried that too but this one will recongnize no active installed flash.Is there any way to reanimate my PIX515e? In newer devices there are possibilites to work with changing config register but I´ve found nothing about that for a PIX515e.

A simple question - I have ASA 5520s and was wondering what license is required to create multiple (more than default 2) security contexts.
The ASA already have ASA 5520 VPN Plus license.

ASA5540# sh run nat-control
no nat-control
this means higher security can talk to lower security without NAT rules
Question 1) - if I want higher security zone to to talk to lower security with NAT rules. I would use statements like below. Am I correct?
nat (dmz) 1 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0
nat (inside) 1 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0
global (dmz) 1 interface
global (inside) 1 interface
Is this correct? So in this case I am kindly of like overriding the no nat-control statement ...right?
Question 2) - Now I have no nat-control enabled. Would the below statements (nat 0) be of any use for NAT exemption??
nat (dmz) 0 access-list dmz-nonat
nat (inside) 0 access-list dbase-nonat
And do I have to have a global statement for NAT 0 ...like below?
global (dmz) 0 access-list dmz-nonat
global (apps) 0 access-list dbase-

I have a remote site customer with a Cisco ASA 5540 running SSLVPN (Anyconnect)(8.03). It currently only serves about 450 SSLVPN clients. Since last friday, they've seen the CPU utilization go up to high 90% while only serving 400+ remote users. I saw some high cpu utilization bugs, but none looked to be relevant. How I can find the root cause of the CPU high utilization?

I have 2 ASA 5540's that I want to run in HA A/F. The active ASA has an IPS module running. I no longer need this and would rather remove it than purchase another module for the spare. What is the process to do this safely? After removal will the HA wizard recognize that the module was removed or do I have to update the software?

there was remote FTP - users behind ASA5540 can connect to it.
Now, with this ftp there is SSL/TLS encryption added and users behind this ASA can't connect to this FTPS.
It this possible for users behind ASA to connect to FTPSs?

I am in the process of rebuilding our ASA 5540 pair. We are currently on 8.2 code with this set of firewalls and I was going to upgrade it to 8.4 being I have a couple of other firewalls running this code currently and am familiar with it. That said, I saw that the 9.x code is out there now. Are there any major advantages or caveats with the 9.0 code? I plan to use this firewall with SSL VPN and RSA Secure ID integration for the next 2-3 years at least. Any quick pointers on these two code versions and on upgrading to 9 or staying with 8.4 line.

I currently have 3 WAP4410n's (actually, they're WAP4410N-E V02s) that have been really unreliable since I got them - so much so that we've had to cron a restart script on another server which is frankly ridiculous - they've always run firmware version 2.0.2.1.
I've tried updating the firmware to new versions in the past with no success - when I do so, it looks like everything's fine, but when I log back in, the fixed IP address information isn't shown, and the wireless is disabled. I can enable it, but I can't select a channel.
At this point, I have to revert back to the old firmware. I've tried restoring to factory setttings before and after the firmware flash, but this hasn't changed anything.
However, recently I was able to flash firmware 2.0.5.3 onto only one of the routers - it worked fine and all information was displayed and wireless enabled correctly. However on the other two, no matter what I try, the firmware won't upgrade succesfully - it looks like everything's fine, but the fixed IP information isn't shown and wireless/channels are disabled.
