Upgrade sequentially ASA 7.0 to 8.2. ASDM sequential too?

maganap_a2 — Mon, 11 Mar 2019 19:36:24 GMT

Hello!

We're about to upgrade our ASA 5540 from ASA 7.0 to ASA 8.2 image. It is supposed to be done in sequential order: 7.0 -> 7.1 -> 7.2 -> 8.2 (there's no 8.1 for 5540, I read).

The ASDM would also need to be upgraded from 5.0 to 6.3.

So... can we just upgrade (sequentially) the asa image from 7.0 to 8.2, and then jump from asdm 5.0 to 6.3?

Or, do we also have to sequentially upgrade the asdm (5.0 -> 5.1 -> 5.2 -> 6.3) while upgrading its corresponding asa image?

I really couldn't find this specific question answered in the forum.

Thanks a lot for your help in advance.

You can upgrade the ASDM directly to the compatible version. You do not need to go via sequential upgrade path.

Hope this helps.
