Upgrading ASA 5505 Adaptive Security Appliance

[support1@lima.co.uk]

Hi,

I have several ASA 5505 Adaptive Security Appliance that need upgrading.

They are all on different firmware versions such as the below

/asa724-k8.bin"and /asa825-k8.bin"

I have checked the software and download portal and it seems asa917-32-k8.bin is the recommended.

I am struggling to see within the release notes if I can go from asa724-k8.bin"and /asa825-k8.bin" directly to asa917-32-k8.bin and also what ASDM version should I use?

Release notes - https://www.cisco.com/web/software/280775065/131523/ASA-917-Interim-Release-Notes.html

9.1.7 - https://software.cisco.com/download/home/280582808/type/280775065/release/9.1.7%20Interim

ASDM Version?? - https://software.cisco.com/download/home/280582808/type/280775064/release/7.16.1.150

Thank you!
