Pix to asa 5510

[mrehman02]

Dears, I am trying to upgrade my pix 515 to ASA 5510 . I have mostly copied the configuration but is stuck on one part where we have  set the IP next hop in the pix. For some reason I cant find the SET IP NEXT HOP command in the asa. What could be the reason? Please advice

Hi there, can you post the exact syntax from the PIX?

Hi, Please find it below.

route-map NETWORK-1 permit 10
set metric 2
set ip next-hop 10.40.60.5
match ip address 150
route-map NETWORK-1 permit 20
set metric 5
set ip next-hop 10.40.60.8
match ip address 160

So it seems like you are trying to running PBR (Policy Based Routing). This feature was not available in the ASA code until 9.4:

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/asa/asa94/release/notes/asarn94.html

Unfortunately, ASA 5510 is End-of-Life/End-of-Sale and as a result, the latest version that it can run is 9.1. Thus, you should look into replacing that ASA with a next-generation model ASA (X series). This will allow you to run the desired code for PBR and will also give you the option(s) to run some next-generation features (NGIPS, Malware inspection, etc). 

I hope this helps!
