Hi All,
I'm in the process of designing a network solution for a client and sales have proposed the ASA 5506-X firewall. I have a requirement for a DMZ zone. I recall that the 5505 only supported inside and outside interfaces.
can anyone confirm that the 5506-X supports 3 interfaces?
PS; we'll have the Security Plus license
thanks in advance
John

This ASA is not like the 5505 so it can not really be compaired to it. Running the base license you are not restricted to the number of active VLANs you are allowed to have, but instead you are restricted by the number of total VLANs you are allowed to configure on the device.
I have the 5506 with security plus license at home and am restricted to 30 VLANs.

Hi,
I don't think this ASA has any restriction as that of ASA 5505.
Refer:-

Thanks Vibhor,
I've been searching through those data sheets and guides all afternoon but couldn't find anything specifically stating if it had 2, 3 or more configurable interfaces; you would think it would support a 3rd zone but then it is the bottom of the range!!!
cheers,

Hi,
Still as per your requirement , I think you should be fine with this ASA as i am sure it has no such restrictions.

I have a 5508x and just tring to use 3 physical interfaces with different Namedif
And I get this.. "with the current License device will only support 2 fully funtional interfaces............."
The CLI lets me add it tho?

If I am guessing correctly you are using the ASDM to configure the ASA. You should not have this issue when using the CLI.
If my assumption is correct, then you are running into the following bug:

That Fixed now on to the next bug, that the ASDM will not load on windows 10.
