Multiple security contexts and ASA5500

[pateld]

Hello,

I am working on project to replace VPN 3000s with ASA 5500 Series. I want to configure multiple security contexts within a single Cisco ASA 5500 Series appliance, with each context having its own set of security policies, logical interfaces, and administrative domains.

I read somewhere that multiple context and VPNs don't go together, so looking for better explanation: is it true?

Any ideas are much appriciated!

thanks.

yes it's true. you can't use vpn's with multiple contexts.

Yes as stated earlier, this is true. Even dynamic routing, QoS etc. are not supported in multiple context mode, have a look at the following link:
