FWSM to ASASM Object conversion

John Quick — Tue, 12 Mar 2019 00:19:00 GMT

We are in the process of migrating to the ASA service modules on both our 6509E switches from our current FWSM. We have used the Cisco conversion tool and applied that to the service module. When viewing the context in ASDM we are unable to view the object names in the right hand pane.

On the FWSM I would see the following under Network Objects:

Network Objects

- JQ-Test

- JQ-Test2

- JQ-Test3

Network Object Group

+ JQ Group

- JQ-Test

- JQ-Test2

- JQ-Test3

Now I have run the conversion tool and applied that to the ASA's I now get the following results.

Network Objects

- 10.1.1.1

- 10.2.2.2

- 10.3.3.3

Network Object Group

+ JQ Group

- 10.1.1.1

- 10.2.2.2

- 10.3.3.3

I am aware that the naming convention on the ASA's are different to the FWSM as you can no longer use the "name 1.1.1.1 JQ-Test1" format but I was hoping that the conversion tool would do this for me.

Is there any way I can get the names of the object back without having to script something that takes the old FWSM format and convert it into an ASA format?

Thanks

John

Hi,

Did you ever find an easy solution to this?

I'm looking at a config with +10.000 lines. There's no way I'm doing all that re-config by hand

Thanks.
