ASA REST File/Firmware Transfer

Is there a way to transfer firmware to the ASA using REST? Either through specifying a location to boot in the configuration or uploading the file?

Thanks in advance

Hi there,

There is no specific call in the API, but you could use the "POST /api/cli"call. Passing it a JSON object:

{
  "commands": [
    "copy /noconfirm tftp:10.10.20.1/asa942-11-smp-k8.bin flash:"
  ]
}

Implement some logic in your script to verify the presence of the file, and then change the boot variable using separate calls to /api/cli .

cheers,

Seb.
