Migration Tool from ASA 5505 to ASA 5525

[Atif Siddiqui]

Hello Experts,

I am looking for a migration tool, if some one can guide me, with that i can migrate my existing Cisco ASA 5505 to Cisco ASA 5525. I am not sure about doing copy and paste, there is a lot of caveats. I am really looking for a help if someone can let me guide where i can find that tool for migration which will take my existing asa configuration and migrate to new 5525.

I  really appreciate your inputs on this.

Atif,

Cisco has a firewall migration conversion tool but unfortunately the ASA 5505 is not a supported source platform. There are certain ASA 5505 features - notably the switchports and VLAN interfaces - that don't cleanly map to the 5500-X series (exclusively routed ports and no VLAN interfaces).

Most 5505 configurations are pretty simple and can be migrated "by hand". If you're not comfortable with that, you might have a look at the tools over at tunnelsup.com. There you can at least migrate your NAT statements, if that helps you.
