Remotely power on ASA 5525

[NInja Black]

Hi,

 I already searched enough to know this is not possible but just to confirm... Can I remotely turn On ASA 5525 without having to physically press the power button?

There will be maintenance this weekend at our office building and power will be turned off to the complete building for 12 hrs. Once the power is back on I want to be able to remotely turn On the ASAs. Else I will have to drive to the office for a 1 sec task. Also the building maintenance is going to be a routine thing for few months so being able to do this remotely would be a huge time saver.

Sorry but the answer is no.

Maybe you can use this incident to get management to approve purchase of a managed PDU or UPS with enough capacity to keep the ASA running for such an extended period.
