Downloading old ASA versions

[William Hatcher]

I recently bought a used 5525-X ASA running 9.1(1). I'd like to upgrade it to 9.14(1) (the latest to support FirePOWER and ADSM), but need to do an intermediate upgrade to 9.1(2).

I cannot find any ASA images older than 9.8 on the Cisco Software Download site. https://software.cisco.com/download/home/284143129/type/280775065/release/9.14.4%20Interim

Where can I download a copy of ASA 9.1(2)? Or is there another upgrade path I can take?

Here are some of my reasons for upgrading:

1. I am unable to use the ADSM startup wizard or other tools due to my Java client not accepting TLS1.0
2. I am new to Cisco equipment and would like to learn on more modern images
3. I'd like to have as many bug/vulnerabilities fixed as possible on this ASA

Help would be greatly appreciated.

There is 2 options contact TAC (since that version removed from download)

downgrade 9.0(4) and upgrade to 9.12 or 13 then 9.14 - hope this option should work.

Thank you! Downgrading, then upgrading worked a charm.
