ASA5505 Need to Upgrade ASA 8.2(5) and ADSM 6.4(5) to current revisions

[bokum32301]

Hello, 

We purchased the ASA 5505 years ago but never upgraded the hardware or software ASA and ADSM.

I have our netsmart license and via ADSM software am running the upgrade assistant.

Question:

We are at ASA 8.2(5) and ADSM 6.4(5). It is giving me quite a few versions between ours and the most current to upgrade. 

Can I go to the most current version or is there a preferred upgrade path?

I also had added the 512 MB upgrade. 

Thank you in advance.

You can go to the 9.X code but it will convert your NATing to the new Natting style. You will need to review your natting and nat exempt and make sure all OK

Thank you.

I will look at the nat items.

I know enough to get into trouble, but I didn't want todo the upgrade and mess up all the settings.

Defiantly will back up the image on the ASA5505 first.
