https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/asa-rest-api-observations/m-p/3730027#M76 <P>Hi all - starting to work with the ASA REST API (v1.3.2.325 on a 5585-X, IOS 9.6(4)10) and noticed a few oddities that I'm looking for answers to.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>1. I have a python script that pulls the cryptochecksum (using api/cli) - takes .2 sec normally, but after I do wr mem on the FW after a change, it takes ~2min -- is this because the JVM gets restarted after the wr mem?</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>2. Also - using /api/cli - I pull a show running-config, which takes a variable amount of time from 9 sec to 55 sec - on a test FW with no load and no changes between the tests.&nbsp; Is this a JVM bottleneck (netmiko always takes about 12sec and using the API to write to tftp always takes about 3sec)?</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>Thoughts?</P> Fri, 01 Mar 2019 12:46:04 GMT dberber1 2019-03-01T12:46:04Z https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/asa-rest-api-observations/m-p/3730027#M76 <P>Hi all - starting to work with the ASA REST API (v1.3.2.325 on a 5585-X, IOS 9.6(4)10) and noticed a few oddities that I'm looking for answers to.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>1.
