ASA support in Prime Infrastructure 1.2 Lifecycle

[ginalg]

Now I am testing phase with this new software and I found, that the Prime is able to manage ASA, but unable to say anything about it, does not place in the relevant Device Group. Is there any possibility for a more detailed management of ASA within PI 12 Lifecycle?

The "pure" PI 1.2 has limited functionality outside of the traditional NCS which it is derived from. You will get more functionality from LMS 4.2.2 (included in PI 1.2 licensing). If you're just managing a small number of ASAs, that might be a better choice.

You will still have limited view into the firewall though. For full management capability of ASAs, and for any large scale ASA management, the flagship solution from Cisco is Cisco Security Manager (CSM):
