Migrate PIX to ASA tools

[burleyman]

Can provide me with the PIX to ASA migration tools? I can't seem to find them, are they still available?

Hi,

Never used this myself.

Heres some guide to getting the tool

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/asa/migration/guide/pix2asa.html#wp290854

I'd assume though you will need a CCO account with service contract. I couldn't download the software as we have not gotten any of the contract under my name/account.

Looking at the whole "path" the the tool download it seems to be the following

Downloads Home ->

Products ->

Security ->

Firewalls ->

Adaptive Security Appliances (ASA) ->

Cisco PIX Firewall Software ->

PIX Firewall Software-1.0

You might need to "hop throught" a couple of drop down menus to get to the Software 1.0 under which you will find the download link. I can't test it at the moment.

Thanks Jouni, I already had that information. Has anyone used the tool before and can you tell me any issues or things I need to watch for?

i have used the tool many times. it works perfectly.

try to search for PIXtoASAsetup.exe for download

the only thing will be if you have less number of interfaces in ASA as compared to PIX. then you will have to do the interface config and all associated mapping changes manually.

Though i always prefer to go through the config once for reveiw, after the conversion.
