Hi Deena,

Since this is just a hardware upgrade i don't see any stumbling blocks. ASA 5585 has more capabilities and you can run the same software and configuration. I don't see any issues. Just ensure that you have same licensed features on ASA 5585 that you had on 5520.

If you have any specific concern, please let me know. Here are some links for your reference:

Hi,

The important difference with the upgrade , With ASA 5585 , you would get the Ten Gig interfaces as well so plan/design the setup accordingly with the use of these interface for maximum throughput.

Thanks and Regards,
