I have a pair of Cisco 5525x Firewalls running code 9.7.1 in multi-context mode. I have 2 contexts that require to run independent BGP instances. Is this a supported configuration? If yes, can you shed some light on the configuration side. Based on what I know the BGP process has to be enabled in the system context before it can be applied to the normal context. As far as I can see I can only enable one BGP AS in the system context mode.

Hello,
Please be aware that setting two BGP instances on the ASA is not possible, see the limitations on the following link:
If we are talking about multiple context, the BGP instance need to be configured first on the system context, that been said, the ASA will display an error whenever a second BGP instance is tried to set up.
Regards,
Aaron.

hi,
is the single BGP instance still a restriction?
i'm using FPR 3100 in ASA multiple mode.
it currently has a BGP config under the system and on a context and would like to add another BGP instance.
can someone advise and point me to a "new" cisco link using FPR appliance with ASA OS?

multicontext has not changed AFAIK.. their is no new development as they are moving to multi-instance capability. One thing you can look into using multiple FTD instance .. each one will be a separate FTD image and instance and you have to divide up the cores between the instances... essentially like running multiple firewalls..
