My company purchased a Cisco ASA 5505 firewall from our phone company, who installed and configured it but will no longer support it.
The first thing you should probably know is that I make no claims to know anything about Cisco equipment. My primary job is a Web developer, so I can work with Linux boxes, and usually fix them, but this thing is a Mystery to me.
The Quick Start guide (http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/asa/quick_start/5505/5505-poster.html#wp59840) says I can use ASDM if I go to https://firewall_ip/admin/ (mine being https://192.0.0.254/admin/) When I try this with either Firefox or MSIE 8, the connection times out and I can't get to ASDM (which I was able to find instructions for)
I am able to telnet in to the firewall, but have no clue how to use the Cisco CLI.
I was able to locate a 3800 page manual online, but since my primary function is actually production, and I need to produce products for our customers, I don't have much time to read and work through the manual to find what I need to know.
All I have is the firewall itself. No printed manual, or software CD as mentioned on most of the online stores I can buy the device from.
Can anyone either offer help with getting ASDM working, or instructions on how to open up Port 23 so I can NAT it to 192.0.0.112 ?
Just in case it is important, when the phone company installed our firewall config, we had them NAT port 80 to one server and 443 to another, so if these will affect what needs to be done, I can provide more information.
Thanks!
