Cisco Firewall :: PIX To ASA 8.3 Migration?
Mar 8, 2011As we are all aware that the ASA8.3 has quite some changes interms of configuration method.
I would like to know if it is possible to use the pix to Asa conversion tool for 8.3 purpose.

I have old ASA with 8.0 configuration that includes huge number of ACL, NAT , VPNs , we got a new ASA with 8.6 , and we are planning to move the configuration to the new box , I'm wondering what is the best approach to do this , I'm thinking of one of the following scenarios1- downgrade the new ASA to 8.3 , the apply the config , remove the identity nat commands and names then upgrade to 8.6 and after that reconfigure the NAT rules and object groups .2- convert the old config manually to 8.6 code including NAT , object-group ,ACL and apply it to the new ASA ( this is going to be huge task). What are the commands that I have to look at when I convert to 8.6 and will the VPN configuration be affected ?

The question is, what is the better method to migrade the configurations? Manually?
What is the better version for 5525-X? 8.6.1?
I was trying to upgrade an ASA to from 8.2.4 to 8.4.4, and I began receiving the following migration errors (the IP addresses have been changed to protect the innocent):
ERROR: MIGRATION: The following ACE is partially/not migrated to Real IP, as it could result in more permissive policy. Please manually migrate this ACE. permit esp host 1.1.1.1 host 2.2.2.2
I got a TON of these, in fact the migration, and these errors ran for over 24 hours before I gave up, powercycled the unit and forced 8.2.4 to boot through ROMMON. This was a secondary unit, that's why I let it go this long.
What I don't understand is that we do not have anything in the configuration for ESP.
I don't seem to be able to find a migration utility for PIX rel 8.0.4 to ASA 8.6 is there one available will save a lot of time

Is this migration directly supported, or do I need to downgrade first?
I have ASA-AC-M-5520, can we migrate the license to ASA-AC-M-5585
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm testing upgrading an ASA from 8.2.5 to 8.4.4. During the the upgrade, it change all of my ACL host entries to objects. But I noticed that the keyword "host" is still a valid option when creating an ACL.
I'm trying to understand why this change is made during the migration.
I am about to carry out a migration from ASA 5550 to ASA 5555-X, however I cannot find any detailed document or reliable tool for this migration.
View 4 Replies View RelatedWe're migrating as mentioned in the subject and this new format is quite a departure from previous iOS versions so I thought I'd post the configs of the PIX and the ASA and ask if someone is willing to compare them and verify that it is correct and should be basically plug and play. The xxx.xxx.xxx are outside IP addresses and the yyy.yyy.yyy are inside addresses. .

Customer has a ASA5540 at their main location and need a new ASA5500 for a DR site.
Can I simply take a config file from an ASA5540 and easily drop it on an ASA5545-X or what ever?
They are going to be using it as a VPN concentrator primarily.
Or are there going to be issues since the 5540 is running 8.4(5) and the 5545-X? Or if they upgrade to 9,0(1) or higher, then they should be the same?
My company (in Healthcare) is going to be changing ISPs for our internet connectivity, and with this change comes a new external IP block. So I need a scheme to migrate over all of my existing VPN tunnels and other items over to new IP addresses. We do have an external router which I plan on doing a route-map to handle which traffic the ISP should go to based on IP. My big concern is for the ASA 5510. Can I setup a second outside interface on the new IP range? Then migrate my VPN tunnels over one-by-one? A drop-dead cutover date is just not possible with all of the external companies that I have to contact to get VPN tunnels updated with. If it's not possible, we have in our budget to get another 5510 next year as a redundant unit. I may be able to get that early and just migrate from one firewall to another.
View 3 Replies View Relatedin the ASA Migration Guide for Version 8.3 says about real ip address: "All of the access-listcommands used for these features are automatically migrated unless otherwise noted"
But my ACL's have not been migrated to real ip address. In my migration log:
INFO: NAT migration completed. Real IP migration logs: No ACL was changed as part of Real-ip migrationWhy?So, do I have to migrate them manually?
when I migrated the ASA config from 8.2 to 8.3, in all groups the group members has been replaced by the IP address object. However, the "name" for this object has been migrated, but there is the "object network name" configuration missing.
What I can do now is that I can open the new created object in the ASDM, search for the object with this IP address and then enter the object name I had before. When I apply the config, ASDM then creates the object and replaces all affected objects in all groups, by replacing the object group memeber "network-object host hostname" with "network-object object hostname".
Do you know if there exists an automated way, which checks all the groups for members "network-object host", creates the "object network" and replaces the "network-object hosts" with "network-object object" within the group? As long we have a lot of groups which contains partially > 50 members?
We currently have redundant FWSM's and are planning a migration to standalone ASA 5500 series firewalls. However, we have a complete VMWare environment and are looking at the Nexus 1000V. I understand the Nexus 1000V and VSG architecture and implementation, and I do understand that the ASA 1000V is designed for cloud environments. But I do have one question about the ASA 1000V.
Is it possible for an ASA 5500 series firewall to be replaced by an ASA 1000V? Basically, can an ASA 1000V be a sole firewall solution, or are ASA 5500's still needed? Is there a datasheet anywhere that compares the ASA 1000V and ASA 5500 series?
I've recently migrated a PIX 525 to ASA 5520, but for some reason (through ASA) the users from OUTSIDE aren't able access services published in DMZ as well as some DMZ servers aren't able to communicate to some OUTSIDE services.
-INSIDE to DMZ is working fine. (through ASA)
-INSIDE to OUTSIDE is working fine. (through ASA)
Below is the configuration from my PIX (where everything works just fine) as well as the one on the ASA (where there is a problem), what could be the cause?In the below case the DMZ hosts from 11.1.10.0 aren't able to access SMTP services (through ASA) and the OUTSIDE users aren't able to access DMZ web server (11.1.10.40) through ASA, this all just works fine with PIX.

I have just upgraded a ASA5510 from 8.2 to 8.3 using migration tool.All seemed to go well, still double checking the config as this is a bench test of upgrade prior to filed upgrades.
Anyway one thing that is slightly frustrating is that the migration has expanded all of my access-lists, so we maybe had 10 lines of config relating to access-lists based on access-groups, now we have hundreds of lines.On ASDM this is bad enough but on CLI with show run its a bit of a bind.
Is there any way to un-expand the access list or do I simply delete and start again using my access groups.
I need to replace an existing ASA 5540 with a new ASA 5525X. I would like to pre-stage and configure the new box with the existing config, migrate license and export certificate files before swapping it with the old one during a change window. The new firewall will run 9.1 on deployment. Now the same 7.2(4) cannot just be copied over to 5525X running the minimum 8.6 version. There is a Web based tool available at [URL] according to Cisco documentation but the page does not load for me (Cisco intranet only tool ?). Is there another tool for automatic conversion ?

I need to upgrade my ACS for windows 4.1.1.23 to 5.2 as we have come across the windows 2008R2 AD problem. Now reading the migration document it says I need to go to at least 4.1.1.24 first which will not be a problem, then I need a migation server, so that means I need another ACS server as the migration server. As I already have 2 ACS servers could I use one of them as the Migration server, ie take it out of production?

I am working on a migration from Windows based WCS 7.0.164.3 to NCS appliance (1.2.1-once it is available). After stopping WCS, I issued the export userdata C:WCS07Migrate. The process completed, but did not create a single zip file. I found 2 files created in the tmp directory.
One contains multiple a folder called tempDirUserDataFromDb - containing multiple xml files; and another file called ImportExport_ca<number> which contains the maps. Was there something incorrect in my command? Can I use still use these files on NCS? Or do I need to redo the export on the WCS?
NCM is going away. It is recommend to move to LMS. We already have a LMS deployment. Currently just used for Monitoring/Performance.Trying to figure out how to get the Configuration change piece that we used NCM for into LMS. Not really having any luck.What I am really wanting to do is configuration archive, device config change notices (when a device config changes I can run report to see who and what was changed), and configuration comparisions (between old and new configs)

View 7 Replies View RelatedA customer is asking to upgrade their LMS 3.0 to Prime 1.1. However, the customer or their previous system's integrator never actually installed LMS 3.0. The licensing and PAK were never used as well. My question is, can I still use the migration top level part # R-PI-1.1-UP-K9 to upgrade LMS 3.0 to Prime 1.1 because there was no licensing ever installed? How would the migration of the current licensing work with the new licensing PAK if that is the case? Or does the customer have to purchase a fresh Prime 1.1 licensing (top level part # R-PI-1.1-K9) because LMS 3.0 was never installed?
