ASDM in Firewall Transparent mode

[rosswmerrifield]

Greetings,

I would like to configure an ASA5512-X in firewall transparent mode, but I am having trouble getting ASDM to lauch when I do.

I have created a BVI interface with an IP address, and I hve enabled the mangement interface, but ASDM does not lauch when I enter the IP adress of the BVI I created.

Apprently you need to use the bridge-group command to assign an interfce to a bridge group. When I enter this command at the (config-if) prompt for Management 0/0, this command is not recognized.

What are the general steps for configuring the management interface to be able to launch ASDM in transparent mode?

Thanks,

-Ross Merrifield

Hello Ross,

The managment interface itself is only used for managment purposes ( it has it's own Ip address) So configured it differently from any other interfaces ( Assing an ip to that managment interface like you will do with a regular ASA interface ( not on bridged mode) )
